This web site is dedicated to researching 18th and 19th Century Irish families with the name Eivers, Evers, Ivers, Evre, Heever, MacKeever. Please have a look at the Origins of the name page including a rather vague reference to our 'ROYAL ANCESTOR' King Ivor Eivers of Dublin. It may get you a free pint of Guinness if you ever visit the city.
Browse through various data that researchers have found Odds and Ends , or have a look at the Photo Section to see if there is a family resemblance.
In the early 1800's there were probably just over 100 families with this name in Ireland. Most of them lived in the midlands of Ireland in the counties of Westmeath and Longford. Many may have perished in the famine during the1840's. Some of the survivors and their children emigrated in search of a better life. There is a world-wide group of about 20 of us whose family trees share this name, we are connected by e-mail and pool our research in the hope that we find some common ancestor. Current researchers have connections with: Ireland, England, Wales, United States, Australia, New Zealand and the Virgin Islands
Please have a browse at the vast amount of data we have available on the name. Also please use the Message Board to leave details of your ancestors. Many thanks to Lynn Eivers, Andrew Veevers and my father George who have done most of the work in compiling these records.
