A Roll of Arms Registered by the Committee on Heraldry of the New England Historic Genealogical Society

$34.95

Founded in 1864, the Committee on Heraldry authenticates, preserves, and records coats of arms borne in the United States and by U.S.citizens living abroad. Published intermittently in the Register between 1928 and 1980, the Committee's Roll of Arms includes illustrated shields presented for review by the Committee along with a description, associated family name, and name of submitter. Considering that many 17th-century immigrants to the New World bore arms, this is an important volume for anyone with early American ancestry.
