Hello pringy, I know I'm new but can I offer some advice.
I wanted to engrave a relatives family crest/coat of arms onto some glasses for a present. I found the surname of the person and supposedly the picture of what I was looking for. Looked at other websites and found different crests for the same surname, so I'm thinking "okay different crests/coats for English, Welsh, Scottish etc. Mmmm not so, English crest for same surname, 2 quite different pictures. I started delving deeper to find these and many other links the same. http://www.fleurdelis.com/nofamilycrest.htm and this http://www.tappfamily.us/kot/legends.php scroll down to there is a Tapp coat of arms false.
The person I was giving the present to would have known this better than me, so I decided against it.
I'm not saying the links are fact, I don't know? but it did put me off the idea. I'd love for somebody who knows to tell me I'm talking twaddle, would be a great pressie for next year.
