Elements of the Crest:

    Helmet and Mantling:
    • The helmet signifies nobility and a warrior heritage.
    • The style of the helmet, typically a tilting helmet, indicates a rank of esquire or knight.
    • The red mantling around it, combined with the gold, is suggestive of the Templar connection, as these colors often symbolized valor and wealth.
    Crosses:
    • The crosses in the upper section (a row of four red crosses on a gold background) may represent the family's Christian faith, a connection to the Knights Templar (as they were a religious-military order), and possibly participation in the Crusades.
    • The Templar cross is often associated with nobility and historical ties to religious wars.
    Three Circles (Roundels):
    • The three large gold roundels in the lower part of the shield are typically called "bezants", a term referencing Byzantine coins.
    • Bezants represent wealth or ransom paid in wartime and can suggest trade, nobility, or crusader heritage.
    • This may point to wealth or resourcefulness in medieval times.
    Star or Mullet:
    • Below the roundels, the blue star, commonly known as a "mullet", can symbolize a knight's third son in heraldry.
    • It often signifies honor, achievement, or celestial aspirations, and can also represent military service or a connection to knighthood.
    Motto:
    •   📖 The motto "Crux Christi nostra corona", which translates to "The Cross of Christ is our crown", further strengthens the connection to Christian ideals and possibly the Knights Templar or other Christian warrior orders.
    •   📖 The emphasis on the cross as a crown suggests both faith and noble duty.
    Lions and Banners:
    •   ♘ The red banners on either side featuring lions can symbolize courage, strength, and loyalty.
    •   ♘ The lion is a common symbol of power and was often associated with both Scottish and English nobility.
    •   ♘ In the context of Scottish and Irish heritage, the lion could hint at connections to prominent royal families or noble houses.
    Heraldic Symbols on the Sides:
    •   ♔ On the left, there appears to be a shield with three lions, which could represent a connection to English or British royal ties.
    •   ♔ The floral embellishments and bell on either side are often decorative, but they might also carry symbolic meaning depending on family traditions.
    Potential Templar Connection:
    • The use of crosses and the phrase in the motto heavily suggest religious ties, and families with such symbols were often linked to orders like the Knights Templar.
    • These knights were defenders of the Christian faith during the Crusades, and many noble Scottish and Irish families were part of or supporters of these crusading orders.
    • If your family has Scottish or Irish roots, there may be historical links to the Templars, especially given Scotland's long history of welcoming and supporting the Knights after they were disbanded.
    Scottish and Irish Connections:
    • Many Scottish clans and families have deep ties to the Templars, especially after their dissolution in 1312, when many Templars found refuge in Scotland, particularly under Robert the Bruce.
    • Irish families also interacted with these orders during their time.
    • The motto and symbols here might reflect such a heritage, especially the warrior ethos and Christian faith that often accompanied Templar associations.


In summary, this crest embodies the themes of nobility, Christian faith, military service, and possibly connections to the Knights Templar.

The elements on the shield suggest a lineage that valued honor, strength, and religious conviction.

There could be ties to both Scottish and Irish noble traditions, given the heraldic symbols and the historical context provided.
