Product Description

HISTORY
The recording of Heraldry began in the 12th century when it was essential for a knight to be identified in battle.  The designs upon his shield would be a rallying point for his men when those designs were borne upon his flag.  The crest upon the knight's helmet would show where he was to his followers in battle should he become surrounded.
On the death of the bearer of the arms the first son would bear the same arms whilst subsequent sons would bear the same Coat of Arms with a different mark superimposed. A daughter would bear her father's arms to show she was a daughter of a gentleman.
Each British Coat of Arms is officially recorded in The College of Arms in London.
