A Tribute To The Life Of Daniel H. Tracy 1828-1907

Daniel H. Tracy was the first generation of the Tracy family born on American soil. The son of Irish immigrants, he grew up in Grand Isle, Vermont and the Irish Settlement located in Schuyler Falls, Clinton County, New York. He worked on his father's farm until his marriage when he began farming his own land in Schuyler Falls and later in Saranac, New York. Daniel also worked as a collier on his lands. Daniel and Anna Tracy would raise a large family of 11 children until the death of his wife in October of 1873. Daniel was said to come on hard times and moved west to Chicago, Illinois to work where he already had family residing there. While in Chicago, he remarried and the couple relocated to Whiting, Jackson County, Kansas where they raised a family of four children. The Tracy family later moved to Horton, Brown County, Kansas where Daniel worked in the local boiler shop as an iron molder. Sometime after 1900 Daniel Tracy moved back to Chicago, Illinois and resided with his niece Mary and her family until his eventual death in 1907. This then is a tribute to the life and times of Daniel H. Tracy.
