Help[Surname] my last name
I've never been able to find out anything about the last name Driever. There is a town in Germany called Driever. I don't know anything else. Sorry. I've always wondered if it meant anything.

Driever can be either German or Dutch. If German, it's probably a variant of Driewer/Driver which means 'cattle driver' according to one source though the placename Driever you mention could also be a prossibility. If Dutch, it's a variant of Drijver which also means 'cattle driver'.

Thanks. Kind of ironic my Driever side has always been farmers.
