Recently, my paternal grandfather was digging through some old photos and documents, and he happened to stumble upon something I found at least somewhat interesting. It is a document that apparently has some old family history stuff on it. I have no idea whether or not this authentic or just some fabrication by someone and it happened to fall into my grandfather’s hands. Unfortunately, some of it makes no sense at all, I don’t know if that is because it is using some bizarre syntax, or if the person that wrote it originally had no idea what they were talking about. But, I digress, here is an excerpt from the document:
Motto
“Fidelitas in adversis”
Arms
“Argent, three bars gules on a canton of the second a castle or.”
Crest
“A dexter arm embowed, vested argent, cuffed sable, holding in the hand proper a sword of the first, hilt and pommel or.”
