"Visitation of Lancashire by Sir William
Dugdale, 1664-5"; Chetham |
Sir William Dugdale was one of the College
of Heralds and in 1664 he travelled to Lancashire
to record the Pedigrees of the families who
were claiming Coats of Arms. The four major
houses of Anderton in Lancashire of the day
recorded a pedigree at this visitation -
Anderton, Lostock, Birchley and Euxton. The
Source Reference Analysis for each family
has the heraldic blazon of the holder of
the arms at the time and a Gedcom file for
each family. |

"Heraldic material at Society Of Genealogists"
Society of Genealogists, London |
On a visit to the Society of Genealogists
in London in 1984, I made copies of
material
from a "packet", or envelope
of
papers, archived on the top floor (possibly
"The Holworthy Collection").
They
are handwritten in ink in an archaic
copperplate
script (19th C?). |
