Biography
Tracy had an older sister, Sophronia, that has written her life story in an autobiography with a couple of mentions of Tracy. It specifically tells of Tracy coming to visit Sophronia's family in Malad, Onieda Co, Idaho in the Spring of 1897 to fetch a horse that belonged to him. Sophronia's child William left with Tracy to return to his grandmother's house because he wanted to get away from his step-father who was treating him poorly.
William Tracy married to Susan Edwards in 1898 when she was 16. She was a grand-daughter of Mormon Pioneer, Zebedee Coltrin. Her mother was the first wife of Hyrum Edwards who after her death, he would marry Sophronia Hall, Tracy's and John's older sister. After Tracy's death, she would marry his younger brother, John Wood Hall. After John passed away, Susan would marry Mr Nordquist. Therefore Tracy and John were both married to their step-niece.
He died at Swan Lake ID, but was buried at Oxford, Idaho.
