Timothy LaFaver Missouri USA 21st April 21 Our Family Tree in Ancestry, My Heritage and LDS my mother's family Lacy originated from Thomas Lacy coming to the US in 1570's. We trace directly to around 1400's, but have a gap to the Hugh De Lacy groups, but know the family came from Normandy region of France. My father's side also came from France, but later as French Hugenots. Help in closing tree gaps from 1066 to 1400's would be awesome.
Roy's Reply: On behalf of Queen Elizabeth 1st, Sir Walter Raleigh sponsored the setting up of The Roanoke Colony (also known as the lost colony) on the island of Roanoke of the shores of Dare County, North Carolina in 1585 as part of his great plantation plan. These were the first settlers but all perished within the first year, including James Lacy but there was no Thomas Lacy among them. More Raleigh settlers followed from 1587 and they were the fist to settle. I have Irish records including the 1400s which I will be publishing in the second half of 2021. Can anybody else help?

Vicky de Lacy London UK. March 2021
My x husband is Sir Patrick Bryan Finucane Lacy. The family was originally from County Wexford in Ireland. His father was Sir Maurice Pierce Lacy, and His father was Sir Pierce Lacy and his father was John Pierce Lacy of Wexford. The title was give to Sir Pierce Lacy for his contribution to Finance. He was chairman of the Birmingham Stock exchange. He was then made High Sheriff of Suffolk where he live at Ampton Hall near Bury St. Edmonds. These Lacys descend from the O'Laitheasa family of County Wexford and I want to know if they can be traced back to Normandy in Lassy.
Roy's Reply: Your details of Sir Pierce Lacy are correct. The O'Laitheasa name is a recognised version of de Lacy name, probably incorrectly scribed by 13th-century Irish monks. The O'Laitheasa original family will have served as Knights to the de Lacy barons of Trim castle in Meath. Related to but not as part of the de Lacy barons. In answer to your question Vicky. Their forebears would have lived along the Welsh Marches serving the Marcher Lords and would have followed Walter de Lacy from Lassy in 1066.

Hello Folks, My grandfather, William Lacey came from a farm in County Wicklow Ireland. I’ll go there for a visit some day find more about his family. I’m thinking of putting the De back on our Lacey name when I change my name...being a Spanish speaker I like the De sound in the name. Thanks for putting this site up.
Roy's reply: de Lacy can now be spelt in a number of ways whichever you prefer.

Jeff Custis USA April 2020
I am related to Thomas Lacy (1650-1711) who came to Virginia from England in the late 1700's. There were 3 or 4 generations of Thomas's. There is a story of how his ship was captured by pirates but he lived and actually helped capture the pirate. His GGG grandson John Johnson Lacy (1782-1860) came to Ohio. I had no idea my Mother's family was so interesting. Researching it is great way to spend time in this dam pandemic.
One of the Lacy's even signed the Magna Carta wow.
Roy's reply: We get a few early Virginia comments check out our other records. The Magna Carta was only one of many great de Lacy history facts.

Reply from Roy: There is a growing number of the de Lacy family with Virginia roots. Worth trying our new search box to see if any match?

Amanda Lacy Jones USA February 2020
Who else has ancestor of Thomas Lacy roughly 1620-1653 and his son Thomas Lacy roughly 1650-1745? They were both born in England (early resource says London) and emigrated to the US. They were early settlers of New Kent, Virginia and Hanover, Virginia. I'd love to connect and share research with anyone else with these shared ancestors! Their later descendants settled in the southeast US - mainly southeast Tennessee and northeast Alabama.
Reply from Roy: Does Amanda's comments ring any family bells?

Bill Peterson Maryland USA December 2019
My direct paternal ancestor Angus Paterson left Sonachan, near Inveraray, Argyle-Bute at age 14 in 1689 and arrived in New England. He sailed from London aboard a ship named Mary Ann arrived in Boston, then made his home in what became Vermont, USA. When Scots were engaged in the Jacobite Rising were the supporters of Charles at some point associated with the Wild Geese? My other ancestors were from Ireland.
Reply from Roy. Interesting information. Has any other follower of this site family Jacobite references. I have sent Bill some notes if anybody else wants them please let me know.

Mary Jo Mosby (Lacy) December 2019. This note is in reply to Ron Lacy (USA) Jan 14th, 2017:
Regarding your theory about Lacy being related to the Tribe of Benjamin in Israel, and to Roy’s theory of being related to the Norseman; I am a Lacy and my recent DNA analysis from Ancestry shows 14% Scandinavian and 1% Jewish. I am not aware of any Jewish or Scandinavian ancestors going back several generations, so I think that both are correct! The rest is a mix of Swiss-German, French, English, Scottish and Irish, all that I can trace back to actual ancestral names. Except the Scandinavian and Jewish and less than 1% Native American.
Reply from Roy. Your European mix is not untypical. As for relating back to pre-1066 Scandinavian names, I don't think any of us can. If your ancestors were named any of the spellings of Lacy, there is a good chance that you can claim to go back to the greater de Lacy family from Lassy, Normandy. As to the connection to Judaism and the Benjamin family also consider there was two-way trading between Scandinavia and Palestine before the 10th century.

Michael De Leacy QLD Australia October 2019
Hi Roy. do you have any information on the change to our spelling? (De Leacy). Thank you for your work.
Reply from Roy, All the recognised names including De Leacy are correct. Different scribes or monastery monks gave their own version of how to spell Lacy which led to different spellings in different areas. Remember the first dictionary did not appear till the 1700s. There is more about Lacy names on page 1 of de Lacy family tree.

Rachel Lacy, North Yorkshire, UK. August 2019
I've got a Lacy family in York as far back as William Lacy (1791 to 1853), who moved to York from Nottingham.
Things get less certain after that: I've seen a Lister Lacy mentioned on here that is potentially one of this branch, if not then William's parents are James and Ginny (nee Gilbert), and his grandfather was Luke Lacy, a cornet in Lord Cholmondeley's Regiment and a "quadroon"according to the parish record of James's birth. After that I;m stumped, does anybody else have York Lacys in their family tree?
Reply from Roy, There is certainly a number of Lacy families with North & East Yorkshire connections.

Regarding the posts from Paul De Lacy in January 2018, Tommy De Lacey in Sept 2017 and Joseph De Lacey in Jan 2017 - I too am related to Christopher Lacey and Matilda Fair. My grandfather was John de Lacey, son of Christopher and Matilda's son Christopher. I've gotten a little bit further back in my research to the early 1800's and would love to swap any info they might have etc.
Reply from Roy, We now have a growing thread based upon Matilda Fair. If you recognise the name please join in. I have advised personally all parties concerned.

Patrick Evans : June 2019
On the Evans side, I have been tracing family back from George Evans of Ireland, and our tree ends at a mysterious “Walter De Lacy Evans” or “Sir James De Lacy Evans” (b 1725) who married “Jane Wilson” in 1755 or 1760. James is sometimes called “General Sir James” in the tree, but I believe this to be a mistake to link back to General Sir George De Lacy Evans (b 1787 above). I would be interested to know if you have any information about a Walter/James De Lacy Evans born around 1725 who married a Jane Wilson. It might connect the De Lacy tree and also might answer some of your questions given Sir George had no children that I am aware of. Their children would be many, including possibly Alexander, Thomas, George, James, John, William, Catherine, Jane, Samuel and Arnold.
Reply from Roy, Are these names ringing any bells with anyone? Thanks also to Patrick for sending me an interesting PDF relating to General George de Lacy Evans MP. I will publish this and a review (the PDF is 211 pages)

Don Koehler, Oregon, USA. May14th 2019
My wife and I just returned from a trip to Ireland, and visited Trim Castle. While on a tour of the keep, the guide mentioned to me that I should read your book, as my great-grandmother was a Lacy. I have been able to trace my Lacy ancestry back to a William Lacy, born in 1778 in South Carolina, USA, but no further. Do you have any information on Lacy's who immigrated to the US prior to 1778? I did read about James Lacy in the comments, but could find no mention of other Lacy's immigrating to the US. I have enjoyed your book and found the history and information fascinating, just as the tour guide at Trim said it would be.
Reply from Roy: 1785 is I think to early for ship manifestos. Do you know if your family has an Irish heritage if so I can recommend two sites you may want to visit who are more expert on this type of question. "The wild geese" https://thewildgeese.irish/page/the-wild-geese-history and www.irelandxo.com Good luck with your search and thank you for the nice comment about my book 'de Lacy Chronicles'

Paul de Lacy, Mayo, Ireland April 26th 2019
My great-great-grandfather was Christopher de Lacy. He worked in a biscuit factory in Dublin at the time of the 1911-census, as did at least one of his sons, Thomas (born c 1889), who is my great-grandfather. Thomas was his eldest child so Christopher was probably born in the 1850s, but possibly not in Dublin... Would anyone else know of this Christopher de Lacy? He married Matilda Fair. Thanks Paul de Lacy
Reply from Roy, Can any of the Dublin based contributors or any other de Lacy followers to this page help Paul?

D/O Kenyon Lillibridge & Wealthy Newcomb/Nucomb.of CT. & RI. Found one Thomas Lillibridge of Essex Eng. 1595- 1667 in Boston MA. with a wife named Laura DeLacey, but I believe she died in England prior to his emigration.
Can't find Laceys or De laceys where the lillibridges settled for generations. Then Laura 1827 appears. Have a continual wonderment about the DeLacey middle name. Thanks Lynn Pittier ( Great Grand Daughter of Laura)
Reply from Roy.Very early emigration to America. Possibly First to Virginia? Any English connections to the name Lillibridge?

David and Betty Jane Pettit. USA via Email. January 10thMy husband's grandmother (Francis Bell Delacey) was the daughter of John Jefferson Criplett Delacey. His father was Hirram, Hiram Hiriam? Delacey, however, all the family trees we find have the wrong Hiram listed which throws off everything. John J C was born in 1855 KY...(He had a sister named Lottie) The Hirram that we find connected to several trees has a birth date of 1846..Which means this "father" would have only been 11 years old and married:) WE don't think so!!
The family has always mentioned being descendants from France. Do you have any insight on this?
Reply from Roy
Are there any Members of the details Lacy family who can relate to these names?
