Hi there
I have found a possible link with an Elizabeth Catherine Diver b 1882 from Co Donegal. Her parents are possibly Catherine Friar (Diver) and John A Diver. Her possible sibling was John Diver b approx 1889. Any information about this family very much appreciated...thanks :-)

I think I have found another link...Johns parents were Catherine and John Diver also and he had 3 other siblings, James + Teague..twins and Sarah from Magheraclogher Co Donegal...I hope I have the right family atleast...thanks for looking :-)

This recent booklet for Co. Donegal research might interest you:

It's linked to this Co. Donegal website which seems quite interesting (music playing in background):

Thanks for that! I have had a look just thought someone might be related to the family to give me an eiasier time researching :-)

Was your Elizabeth Diver born in Donegal? did she marry Charles Sheilds?
I have documentation on Elizabeth Diver-parents John and Rose Ann Martin Diver. Elizabeth was born in Carnisk Donegal.
Elizabeth immigrated before 1881 to Clydebank Scotland.

Hi Ellen
Thanks for the reply! I have since found that we are not so direct as first thought with Elizabeth Diver. Catherine Diver married Henry Diver and had many children but only after 1890. Will let you know if I come up with her again in the near future. Thanks again :-)

Please let me know if you find any info on any Diver(s) as I am trying to find siblings of my great grandfather
