I have just started to research my Gracey family.
My father's name was also Robert Gracey (1910-1982) and he had a sister Molly (1908-2002).My paternal grandfather was also called Robert Gracey (1881-1910) and came from Avenue Road, Lurgan.He emigrated to New Zealand in 1910 to find work and accommodation prior to his family joining him.However he died within a few months of arriving in New Zealand and his family remained in Belfast.My great grandfather was David Gracey.All I know about him is that he originated from Dollingstown and is shown as deceased at the time of his son Roberts marriage in 1910.
My father and your grandfather were cousins.
I will email you with some additional info.
Regards,
Brian Gracey
