Look at those "doves" carefully. If they have no feet, the are actually "martlets", and the lack of feet could suggest a branch of the family too junior to inherit any land, or a traveling soldier without a home.

Also one wouldn't want to see a narrow strip that runs from the upper right to the lower left. Something like this one http://seagirt.antir.sca.org/images/her ... .Gendy.gif

Told you that 99 cent coaster needs to be round filed! Martlet is in Wiki & on many other sites. Martlet is sometimes called a Swift. Not gonna go further, but I see a zing within. :D:

I will send that to my sister and tell her to check it out. She hopes to chat with SWMBO about geneaology (did I spell that right?).
