Seeking any information at all with regards to Pierce Tracey (Tracy) bc 1816 Ballycahill, perhaps to parents, Edward & Winifred Tracey (both deceased by 1841). He immigrated to New South Wales 1841 "Glenswilley" with wife Mary Barry bc 1816 (mother Margaret Barry nee Flynn /Flinn who resided at Macarky, Father Thomas Barry (deceased by 1841))
Pierce & Mary had two children with them when immigrating, sexes unknown.
Trying to confirm Pierces' parents/marriage/children etc
Many thanks

Hi,
My great grandfather Henry Castles, was taken in by this family after becoming orphaned in 1862 at Binalong NSW.
Regards Annie.

Kay,
I have just seen this message. Mary Barry was the sibling of at least three brothers. The three were transported on the Eliza II(4) in 1832 to Sydney for manslaughter in the Tithe Wars of 1831. Pierce and Mary ended up living in Yass, NSW with the three Barrys and other Whiteboys involved in troubles in Tipperary.
I am not sure if you are interested in this side of the Traceys.
