I am looking for help finding my Ivers ancestors. The earliest I know are Thomas and Mary Ivers who I find first in the 1861 England Census. They had four children I know of: John, Bridget, James and Ann. Ann is my great grandmother. She married Owen McHale and they had three or four children, Mary Ann, Catherine, Ann and Owen. My grandmother and her two sisters were from an early age raised in the Certified Poor School run by the Sisters of Mercy and they became domestics and immigrated to the US. I think Owen died very young. Ann, my great grandmother can be found in the Birmingham workhouse where I think she died but I don't know when. Neither do I know what happened to her husband. If you recognize this family, I'd love to hear from you.
