Hi Gail,
I've got "Staves" in my family.
Sophia Caroline Staves married my gr.gr.grandfather in Hull in 1847.
She, along with her family originated from Fulletby in Lincolnshire but they moved to Hull in about 1828. In those days the Staves were Boot and Shoe Makers.
I've no current info on the Staves family but if your research takes you to Hull or Fulletby I may be able to help.

Regards

Pete Wilkinson

I am trying to find any relatives with the surname "Staves". My husband is John Michael Staves and he was born in Rotherham in 1966. He thinks the name is from Lincolnshire??
Any help is greatly appreciated!!
