  • Heraldic Terms
    HERALDIC TERMS The following terms, and their definitions, are used in heraldry. Some terms and practices were used in period real-world heraldry only. Some terms and practices are used in modern real-world heraldry only. Other terms and practices are used in SCA heraldry only. Most are used in both real-world and SCA heraldry. All are presented here as an aid to heraldic research and education. A LA CUISSE, A LA QUISE - at the thigh ABAISED, ABAISSÉ, ABASED - a charge or element depicted lower than its normal position ABATEMENTS - marks of disgrace placed on the shield of an offender of the law. There are extreme few records of such being employed, and then only noted in rolls. (As who would display their device if it had an abatement on it?) ABISME - a minor charge in the center of the shield drawn smaller than usual ABOUTÉ - end to end ABOVE - an ambiguous term which should be avoided in blazon. Generally, two charges one of which is above the other on the field can be blazoned better as "in pale an X and a Y" or "an A and in chief a B". See atop, ensigned. ABYSS - a minor charge in the center of the shield drawn smaller than usual ACCOLLÉ - (1) two shields side-by-side, sometimes united by their bottom tips overlapping or being connected to each other by their sides; (2) an animal with a crown, collar or other item around its neck; (3) keys, weapons or other implements placed saltirewise behind the shield in a heraldic display.

At the same time, it seems, the reality of heraldry's online presence falls somewhat short of the society's expectations.

  • The Earl Marshal, the Heralds, and the House of Commons, 1604–1641
    P. H. HARDACRE THE EARL MARSHAL, THE HERALDS, AND THE HOUSE OF COMMONS, 1604-16411 The successful reassertion of the authority of the Court of the Earl Marshal, in the recent case of the Corporation of Manchester vs. The Manchester Palace of Varieties, Ltd., has renewed interest in this ancient institution. The court ruled that The Manchester Palace of Varieties had wrongly displayed the heraldic arms of the Corporation, contrary to the laws and customs of arms, and that the court itself, which had last sat in 1751 and which Blackstone described as having fallen into contempt and disuse, was still empowered to give relief to those who thought themselves aggrieved in such matters.2 A full account of the Court of the Earl Marshal is much to be de- sired.3 It cannot be attempted in the space of this paper, but one period 1 The author gratefully acknowledges a summer fellowship at the Folger Shake- speare Library which enabled him to do part of the research.

  • Re Family of Thelwall Is Not Mentioned in the 1580 Or 1613 Visitations of Cheshire
    APPENDIX 5 Dr John More's Armorial Bearings The Mo(o)re family of Thelwall is not mentioned in the 1580 or 1613 Visitations of Cheshire. i An apparent lack of proven links to recusant More families elsewhere in the country is matched by the absence of any evident connections to other More gentry families in the area, such as the More family of Bank Hall at Kirkdale near Liverpool, who were at this period strongly Protestant and who had a quite different coat of arms from any of those granted to Dr More. Undoubtedly Dr John was very interested in establishing arms for his heirs. Ormerod relates that he obtained five grants, though Joseph Foster suggested that they may have related to two different Doctors More. ii Some antiquarian writers had fun at More's expense - in 1870 the then owner of Thelwall Hall, James Nicholson, quoted the sarcastic comments of Humphrey Wanley, first keeper of the Harleian Collection, who a century and a half earlier concluded that 'whatever fancy the Dr. might get into his head about his family and arms, of which the last are ascribed to one Sir William de la More, whose family might be extinct long since, the Heralds, we see, took not only his money, but care to preserve his name, and all the alterations he had procured from time to time.' iii However a generation before Nicholson’s quotation, the compiler of 'Chronicles of Thelwall, co. Chester, with notices of the successive lords of that manor, their family descent, etc.', after laying out that quotation and citing the alleged five grants, had gone on to
