Boldly featuring the formidable family motto of "It shall be given to the conqueror!", the proud and noble English surname of Vincent strides forth through the withering sands of time from Leicestershire, where they had held a family seat from early times at Swinford. Originally washed upon Britain's glittering shores amidst the tidal wave of Immigration associated with the Norman Invasion of 1066 A.D., this surname is in reference to the family's previous place of residence in Normandy- St. Vincent-de-Cramenil.
