Wikipedia description:
Gerard David Tracey (9 March 1954 – 20 January 2003) was archivist at the Birmingham Oratory, and writer, editor and Newman scholar. An adopted child, he was educated at Handsworth (by the Sisters of Mercy) and later attended St Philip's Grammar School, followed by University College, Oxford, where he studied history. In 1976, Newman's Oratorian editor Fr Stephen Dessain died and Tracey eventually took over the task of compiling information for the ultimately successful cause of Newman's canonisation. Tracey died, aged 48, from undisclosed causes, on 20 January 2003. He was interred in the graveyard at the Oratory House, Rednal, outside Birmingham. He was survived by his mother.
