Richard Torrance and Other unidentified members of the Society Copyright The Scottish Genealogy Society 2007 The Scottish Genealogy Society Library & Family History Centre 15 Victoria Terrace Edinburgh EH1 2JL Tel: 0131 220 3677 http://www.scotsgenealogy.com SCOTTISH GENEALOGIST Index Volumes 1-52 1953-2005 INTRODUCTION Over the existence of the Scottish Genealogy Society indexes to the Scottish Genealogist have been published at regular intervals and distributed to those who were members of the Society at the time of publication. The index to the first 28 volumes was one large index with no sub-divisions. As a great number of queries were published it was decided to include these in a section of their own from volume 29 onwards. From volume 41 the index was split into the following sections: General index; Article Titles; Contributors; Reviews; Work in Progress; Queries. A separate section for Illustrations was included in the index for volumes 45-52. NUMBERING There has not been uniformity in the numbering format used by the different compilers of the indexes. A volume covers one year during which 4 journals were issued usually in March, June, September and December. In the current index these have been harmonised to follow the most commonly used pattern: Volume number - Roman numerals capitals Journal number - Roman numerals lower case Page number - Arabic numerals Example: XXXIX.iv.116 -Volume 39, December issue, page 116. Page numbering Page numbering in the journals has not been consistent over the years.

  • The Court of the Lord Lyon
    CLAN MACRAE SOCIETY O F C A N A D A ONLINE THE COURT OF THE LOR D L Y O N The Court of the Lord Lyon All heraldry in Scotland is controlled by the Court of the Lord Lyon King of Arms, commonly known as the Lyon Court, and located at New Register House in Edinburgh. The origins of the Lyon Court are literally lost in the mists of time as the office of Lord Lyon incorporates that of the Royal Sennachie or Bard whose duty it was to proclaim the lineage and deeds of the ancestors of the King. From this Celtic start, the position has developed into a judicial one, with the Lord Lyon sitting as a judge on armorial matters. Older medieval heraldry in Scotland is extensive, but poorly documented, which is hardly surprising given the course of Scottish history. Certainly, it can be shown that heraldry existed by the last quarter of the twelfth century, but records of heraldry from the time before the War of Independence went south with King Edward and were like as not lost, whilst other early records appear to have been treated very much as the personal property of the heralds and have thus been lost. Better evidence exists from slightly later periods and this shows that the arms of most of the great families of Scotland, and some which were not so great, had certainly settled down by the fourteenth century, as can be seen from surviving armorial rolls which show Scottish heraldry. The earliest surviving such roll that the author knows of is the Balliol Roll which was the property of the late Sir Anthony Wagner and which is believed to be an English manuscript of the 1330s.

  • Ial Offerings for "Henderson of St
    ) CC ·SR . EONL A Right to Bear Arms? An Examination of Commercial Offerings for "Henderson of St. Laurence, Scotland" The idea !hat i1 specific coai of amis can be !he "mos! represenwcive" of various am1s granced ro differenc individuals wi1h common surnames has no foundalion in realicy. Moreover, ic suggests incorreccly char arms belong co surnames and ,;Ol co individuals. By Helen Hinchliff, Ph.D.. CG o the extent that heraldry affects genealogy, it is in the context of tracing armigerous ancestors. Arms, once granted by appropriate authority, 1 T are inherited from the person granted the right to use them. Since this right must be registered, a wide variety of heraldic sources exists to trace armigerous lineages back to the original grantee-even, with proper documentation, into the Middle Ages. Unfortunately fo r genealogy, the right to use coats of arms (sometimes 2 incorrectly called "crests" ) is widely misunderstood. Many people who become interested in their ancestries turn first to published armorial dictionaries, typically those by Burkel or Debrett,4 to discover whether someone who shares their surname once used a coat of arms. Those untutored in heraldry and genealogy sometimes guess that they are descended from that person. Others assume they have the right to use arms once granted to anyone of their surname. Commercial interests capitalize on the idea that there is a coat of arms fo r every surname. For example, Halbe rts of Bath, O hio,5 sends solicitations to hundreds of thousands of people every year, offering "family books" and coats of arms. Several years ago persons named Henderson received a typical solicitation decorated with a © Helen Hinchliff, Ph.D .

  • FAMILY HERALDRY in the SCA a Menu of Options in Cadency and Marshaling
    FAMILY HERALDRY IN THE SCA A Menu of Options in Cadency and Marshaling by Galen of Bristol, Eighth Viscount von Drachenwald, Knight of the SCA, Master of the Pelican, Baron of the Court, Lion of Ansteorra Presented at the Ansteorran Heraldic & ScriBal Symposium, August 2nd, 2014, A.S. XLIX Heraldry was Born with one essential purpose: as a tool for deciding whether or not to kill the person you meet on the field of Battle. Thus the need for simple, distinctive, and Brightly-colored images on shields, surcoats and crests. But as heraldry Became more common in the 12th and 13th centuries, and on into the High Middle Ages, it also Became a coveted privilege of the gentry to inherit coats of arms and to use heraldry to illustrate relationships Between Bearers of these coats. It is the purpose of this paper to offer information and suggestions that will be useful for illustrating relationships Between married couples in the SCA and for their sons and daughters. In the Middle Ages, people lived in a culture that had included their parents and grandparents Before them, and their children and grandchildren after them. In the SCA, few of us had parents who were in the SCA, from whom we might inherit coats of arms. Likewise, while many of us have children, it is hardly uncommon for grown children of SCA members to opt for other forms of recreation than spending their weekends at tourneys and feasts. Thus, there is an entire area of heraldry that was common in period, which is Barely touched upon in the SCA.

  • The Arms of the College
    Proc. R. Coll. Physicians Edinb. 1994; 24: 104-113. THE ARMS OF THE COLLEGE D. Emslie-Smith, University Department of Medicine, Ninewells Hospital and Medical School, Dundee Fellows and Members of the College are familiar with its Arms but probably take them for granted and may never have wondered why or how they came about. In a review of Edinburgh’s Academic Heraldry, Barden 1 felt that a whole article would be required to tell the full story of how the College’s Arms developed. This article attempts to tell the story, not only of the present Arms, but also of other Arms that have been suggested for the College at different times. The earliest evidence of some Scots Arms is to be found in seals 2 and this is so with the College’s Arms. In the Charter of Erection of the Royal College of Physicians of Edinburgh, granted by King Charles II on the day before St Andrew’s Day, 1681 3 power was given to the ‘honest, faithful and approved physicians’ to have a Common Seal, to be designated the ‘Common Seal of the Royal College of Physicians at Edinburgh’. Craig 4 states that ‘the College took advantage of their rights under the letters patent to design a seal for themselves in the following year’. Although the brass matrix of this seal was said in 1940 to be in the possession of the College 2 a recent search has failed to find it. There are two wax impressions of this original seal at the College but none at the Lyon Office, or in the Scottish Record Office.
