Hi I was wondering if you ever got any further with your Divertie/Divert/Divorty anscestors.

I have Divertie's in my family tree and I've not been doing my research long, but Alexander Divertie and Annie Divertie (nee Laird) were my GGG Grandad & GGG Gran. They were in Anderston and Eastwood areas of Glasgow.  Family then moved to fife as their son Alexander Divertie worked on the Forth Rail Bridge and lived in Inverkeithing.

Hi all,

Received this photo from a relative of the Inverkeithing Divertie's.

My great gran is the young Margaret Divertie on the RHS and her daughter, my gran was also called Margaret.
