Coutesy of Steve Stephan
Thank you Steve, for finding my crest! This
is the Scottish Nicholson or MacNicol
Crest, which has been confirmed by Bill
Nicholson, Nicholson
List owner. According to Bill, “This crest is indeed the Coat of Arms of
Nicolson of Scorrybreac. I have a copy of an old
drawing of this crest that has been in my family for about 50 years. Within
just the past couple of years the Chief has been granted new arms. The Coats
of Arms belong to the individual that they are granted to, in this case
to Iain MacNeacail of
Scorrybreac and MacNeacail, Chief of the Highland
Clan MacNeacail. With Scottish Clans there are Clan Crests that are for
the Clan members to wear. They contain parts of the Chief’s Arms, surrounded
by a strap and buckle, and are worn to display loyalty to the Chief.”
Thank you again, Steve and Bill!
Courtesy of Marsha L. Hillson Gerace Sorry, but I do not have any information
about this crest. I was looking for a Scottish Nicholson crest,
but I think Steve has found it! My cousin, Michael
D. Nicholson of Ottawa, ON, described one to me; “The correct coat
of arms is Bright Yellow with a Red Chevron and Three Red Eagle heads
like the crest. One head below the chevron and two above in each
corner.” |
