You've put Tracey in the title- did you mean Tacey?

If you would like help then please post a few more details such as names and dates and be sure to tell us what you already know so that we don't search for the same information.

I have James Tacey died in Glasgow 1866 aged 27 years I of course cannot get his birth as it would be Drumglass County Tyrone Father Robert a shoemaker Mother Anne Savage

William Tassey/Tacey born 1834? Drumglass Father William Tacey and Anne Thornton
William Tassey/Tacey marriage to Anne Thornton 
He died in Glasgow I have that

Birth John Tacey again I have the death 1902 aged 45 so 1857ish

Birth Jessie Tacey born 1859 ish Father William and Anne Thornton
Marriage Jessie to John Steen possibly in Ireland

Any help would be fabulous
I have lots of OPR material for the Scottish era if I can help with that

I haven't found a marriage for Jessie Tacey to John Steen in Ireland but since the family were there probably before she was born it more likely took place in Scotland.

Children of William Tacey & Ann Thornton born Glasgow (www.familysearch.org)
1857 John Richard, 1859 Margaret, 1860 Robert, 1862 William, 1864 Douglass, 1866 James Porter, 1868 Thornton, 1871 Thornton

What religion were the family?

Spinster Mary Tacey married widower pensioner Thomas Gordon (father Thomas Gordon, a farmer) in Drumglass Church of Ireland on 24 July 1859, the address was Dungannon, she sounds like a sibling of William, for her father was given as Robert Tacey, a cooper, Benjamin Anderson and John Eagleson witnessed.

Spelling variation to note in this entry for Dungannon in the THE BELFAST AND PROVINCE OF ULSTER DIRECTORY FOR 1852:

Teasey, Robert, cooper, Carr's Row

http://www.lennonwylie.co.uk/1852PD2.htm#Dungannon

Just on the offchance this is possibly related from the PRONI Will Calendars, only worth noting until you can rule in or out:

Letters of Administration of the personal estate of Sarah Teasey late of Caledon in the Barony of Dungannon and County of Tyrone deceased who died 7 June 1866 at same place were granted at Armagh to Robert Teasey of Caledon aforesaid Merchant the Husband of said deceased.

The Will (with one Codicil) of Robert Teasey late of Caledon County Tyrone Merchant deceased who died 14 March 1876 at same place was proved at Armagh by the oath of Thomas Andrew Wilson of Caledon aforesaid Merchant an Executor.
