My father was born & raised in the Bronx. His uncle spelled the name Tansey. His grandparents were from County Longord, Ireland. I don't know if my grandfather, Michael Tansy, came over by himself,or if his brothers came with him. Michael's mother's name was Mary, don't know his father's name. If you can supply any names, I'd be glad to help. I'm just starting, too.
The name is anglicized from the title for king-in-waiting. The kings at one time were chosen instead of inheriting. So I don't know how closely we're all related.
There aren't anymore Tansy cousins from our group in New York, we're all west of the Rockies.
