Quick Facts:
The coat of arms evolved as a necessary symbol for knights in medieval times, today the "coat of arms" and its companion the "family crest" serve as interesting and unique reference points to family name history.

Relevance of Surnames: Only a small number of surnames can be traced back to the person that first used the surname. Tracing a name is complicated by clerical errors throughout the time of record keeping, personal choices made by ancestors, phonetic variations, etc.   Many surnames were based on where people came from, or what occupation they held, or a descriptive nickname. Eventually over time surnames became hereditary, and now with the explosive growth of population, name changes aren't as common nor as easy.   Since it is difficult to know the original form and meaning of a surname, it does take a significant effort to trace a family's history and care must be taken when consulting reference works.   Although the "legal" right to a coat of arms lies with direct descendents of the granted family, we can still enjoy the romance and novelty that is associated with the Family Crest that belongs to your family name.
