In reply to Jan about the Ryves. I have the history on some Rives that came from NC about 8 generations ago. They were French and migrated to England and there the name changed from rYven to rIves. all the other variations are from the original spelling of RYVES. If I can help let me know.

I'm glad you let me know about the history of the name.
