Hello Kath
THanks for the info. I have found one or two Iverach families in Canada and Oz. Also one in New Zealand who live near my son (small world); their ancestors went out on assisted passages when it took 3 months for the ship to arrive.
I just thought it a bit sorrowful that Scotland seems to have lost this family line.

There are quite a few people with this surname on passenger lists leaving the U.K. in the mid 1900's.

There are two births on Findmypast.

One in 1971 in Warwickshire
One in 1999 in Hertfordshire.

Thanks Rose.
I've had a later one found in Birmingham UK too.

There was an Iverach in the phone book in 1984 on Ancestry.

Iverach is an ancestral name of ours. I am told it no longer exists in Scotland. Is this true? :
