We are trying to solve quite a puzzle - we are trying to find the father of one Rialf (Ralph) Wright that came to Norway in 1671/1673. There is suggested that he came to Norway either from Denmark or England. Norwegian descendants of this Wright-family have in fact been trying to solve this puzzle for more than 100 years but still with no result...

But we do belive that the solution of this puzzle might be in finding the origins of this coat of arms. There are plenty of resources that show that this arms should belong to the Wrights of Surrey, Hartswood and London. But do anyone know who used this arms for the very first time ? Or, where to find more information about this coat of arms - and information that says something more than just that it was the coat of arms of the Wright-Family of Surrey, Hartswood and London ?

If anyone have some more information about this coat of arms we would truly appreciate it ! :-)

I`m trying to solve a big puzzle - and it all starts with coat of arms with a camel head.

ARMS: Gules (red), a fess Vaire Azure (blue) and Ermine.
CREST: A camel's head couped, bridled Or (gold).

This coat of arms belongs to one Wright-family in Larvik and Porsgrunn (Porsgrund). But where dit it originally came from ?

Some sources say it belonged to a Wright-family in Hartswood (or Hartwood?) in Surrey. But where to find more about this family ?
