What is heraldry?

Heraldry is tracing a noble family line and having an emblem that was used for flags and armor.


What is the Kenyon coat of arms or family crest?

Although it is possible to research heraldry (perhaps several different coats of arms) for specific people with the name Kenyon, these coats of arms will definitely not apply to anyone else with the same surname. In most parts of Europe heraldry has always been allocated along with a knighthood; both the title and the heraldry will in certain circumstances be handed on through the male line via the eldest son - but nobody else even in the same family can claim that heraldry. If there is no son, the title and the heraldry simply die out.If Olympic cyclist Bradley Wiggins receives a well-deserved knighthood he will also be officially allocated heraldry: a coat of arms, heraldic supporters, motto and crest - but nobody else named Wiggins will ever have any legal right to that heraldry - exactly the same as in medieval times.


When did Heraldry begin?

Heraldry emerged in the twelfth century when feudalism began, when knights needed to be identified with family lines and feudal social postitions, as friend or foe. The symbol worn on a tabard over the armor made this distinction possible.


What is written on the Hudspeth family crest?

Nothing is ever written on a crest, nor is there such a thing as a family crest.The Hudspeth arms as misrepresented on various fraudulent American websites are entirely false, since they pretend that the heraldry belongs to the entire Hudspeth family and they include writing on scrolls above and below the heraldry which has nothing at all to do with that heraldry (the text simply says "The Ancient Arms of Hudspeth").The crest is in fact (in this case) the red and white fan of feathers on top of the helmet, which clearly has no writing on it.Heraldry has never been allocated to an entire family, nor to everyone who happens to have the same family name. Heraldry is issued by means of a legal charter to a specific individual, sometime in a hereditary way (meaning that it passes to his eldest son, then his eldest son, and so on). Nobody else in the family is entitled to use it.
