My apologies if you receive this on more than one list. I am searching the surname IVATTS. I have an Emily STEPHEN ms IVATTS. Any searching I have done for this name comes up blank. There are a few on the IGI but they are mostly in the 1600. Is anyone familiar with this name? TIA Joan BC Canada

Do you have any original documents with the spelling IVATTS? I ask because there are WATTS historically in Scotland. And I can see someone wrongly transcribing your ancestral name sometime in the past. Jean Brocklebank
