Members' Roll of Arms

Many of the members of the Heraldry Society are armigerous, ie. they have a coat of arms. This gives us an opportunity to introduce you to the wide range of designs and styles that are used for modern, and ancient, heraldry. The arms are organised by the member’s surname.

Notes

A letter, dated 9 May 1984, from Elizabeth Dowman, Assistant to the York Herald of Arms, written to the member’s cousin Reba Nourse Coombs, verifies the grant of arms, as well as the right of the family to use it. The member’s branch of the family descends from the second son of John Nourse of Milton Keynes, Bucks; its arms are differenced with a crescent.
