Hello people, I am Patricia Ivens from Lewes in East Sussex, England. I found this site by accident and thought I would let you know that there are some Ivens' in this historic County Town. I am 20 and a college student. The family name has been around this area for a while (although the other side of the family is much older, but that's another story!) We are Robert Frederick Ivens (gramps), Patricia Rose Ivens (Nan), Michael Ivens (Dad), Paula Ivens (step mum) and Maria Jenny Ivens who is around somewhere (sis). It's nice to know that theres lots of Ivens'. I thought we were the only ones! I have a copy of the Ivens family tree but would love to know if anyone can trace us back to the origins of the name? Ta!.XXX
