The surname Shives, of Irish descent, has an interesting and ancient history. The name is derived from the Gaelic word "síobh," meaning "peace," and is often associated with the Irish sept, or clan, known as Clan Shíodhbha.
The Shives family can trace their roots back to County Tyrone, located in present-day Northern Ireland. It is believed that the clan originated from the ancient kings of Ulster, who were descended from the legendary King Niall of the Nine Hostages.
During the late medieval period, the Shives family played an important role in Irish society. They were known for their bravery and leadership in battle, and many held positions of authority within the clan.
In the 17th century, however, with the arrival of English settlers and the subsequent colonization of Ireland, the Shives family faced significant challenges. They, like many other Irish clans, struggled to maintain their land and political influence.
Despite these difficulties, many members of the Shives family managed to preserve their heritage and pass down their name through the generations. Today, individuals with the surname Shives can be found in various parts of the world, particularly in Ireland, the United Kingdom, and the United States.
