There are
approx. 60,000 records or blazons in the database. Many are as registered
by the original bearer and the spelling he used at that time, which may be
different from what is used today; so if you don’t find a name, try
different variations. Eg: Chamberlain is a common spelling today, try
Chamberlayn which was common then. When searching for “Mac” names, search
also under “Mc” . When searching for “O” names, try Fitz as well. Irish
and Scottish names should be searched without the prefix, if they do not
show up in your first search. Note on Irish names: if you are searching
for O’Crean (the prefix meaning “descendant of), try searching under
OCREAN (without the apostrophe character), or simply CREAN. Conversely,
when searching for DOHERTY, try O’DOHERTY or ODOHERTY. ...you get the
idea. When the date and or country of registration is known, it is shown
in the margin. This project took over 4 years to complete and we used 6
different transcribers. We proofed the database but there may be
typographical errors. There were, in fact, errors in the actual
manuscripts, and we have noted that registering Heralds, at times,
differed in their descriptions. If you find an error, please copy the
blazon and send it to us in an email. Your assistance in this regard, is
appreciated.
You can submit as many blazons as you like, from any Country. Your name
will be used as the Reference for the blazon. To submit a blazon simply
click on "submit a blazon".

Blazoning
may be regarded as the art of describing in appropriate terms the charges
according to their several gestures, positions, and tinctures; a coat of
arms blazon is the heraldic description of that coat of arms.
The Armorial Gold blazon site features blazons, in
English, of coats of arms from Scotland, Ireland, England and Wales. The
database of blazons is full searchable by surname and you can copy/paste a
blazon should you need to. The blazon database was over 4 years in the
making and the blazons were transcribed from original blazon manuscripts.
The main
resources for these blazons include The Encyclopaedia Heraldica, 1828, by
William Berry, who was the registering clerk for 15 years, for the College
of Arms; Edmondson’s Heraldry (1780) and Burke’s General Armoury (1878).
Armorial Gold Heraldry Services has added some blazons from its library,
as well. The Blazons are as registered by the original bearer and the
spelling used by that bearer.
