Hi there guys,
My dad sent me the Coat of Arms that he has with him.
Also a little break down of the various devices on the Crest.
The description is as follows:
Gules. A pale ermine
Crest the point of a spear in pale, the shaft and hilt in saltire proper, banded gules.
Mantling. Argent and Gules
The broken lance . died in battle with honour hence the red ribbon binding the lance
Helmet denotes from English decent
Ermine , usually associated with royalty and knighthood.
Still waiting on the whole document, might be able to provide a bit more clarification.
