Tracy, Illinois
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Tracy is a ghost town in Essex Township, Kankakee County, Illinois.[1]
Tracy was a relatively small settlement, amounting to possibly a dozen buildings, which housed coal miners exploiting a nearby coal seam in the 1800s; and it disappeared quickly around 1900, when the seam ran out.[2] According to the 1892 Map of the Illinois Central Railroad, Tracy was located just northwest of Buckingham and served as a major spur from the later.[3]
