Hello
I've been trying to find anymore information particularly the images for the Arms and crest of Worsley of Deeping Gate, Northamptonshire.
Richard Worsley Esq in 1607 is noted as 'Richard Worsley, Armiger' on his burial in 1607.
On his Will he is 'Richard Worsley Esq of Deeping Gate'
So far, Im unable to find any pictures of his arms or let alone the crest which im interested in seeing.
The only Sources Ive been able to see which list the arms is the tenious Burkes Armoury and the Visitation of Northamptonshire.
Worsley of Deeping Gate, Co Northampton.
Arms are a quarterly of 6, as per the visitation of Northamptonshire 1564 & 1618-1619
1. Ar. a chief gu with an annulet or, for difference (Worsley)
2. Azure, three wolves passant argent (Unknown)
3. Argent, four bars and a canton gules (Fairfax)
4. Or, A chief Gules, over all a bend azure (Unknown)
5. Argent, three bird-bolts gules (Bozom?)
6. Argent, three bars gules (Unknown)
Crest - 'A trunk of a tree lying fessways, couped and ragulee ar. at the dexter end an acorn branch all ppr. thereon a pheasant ar. combed and wattled or.'
The Visitation of Northamptonshire gives the last part of the crest as 'Beaked and Legged Or' rather than 'Combed and Wattled Or' which Burkes gives.
Any help appreciated.
