Attestations: what are they?

Some arms carry an “Attested: in Renesse’s dictionary…” or “in … Ordinary” note. It points to a reference work, separate from the armorial that gives the blazon, where this name appears with these arms. It is independent corroboration: two books that agree are worth more than one.

Papworth, Ordinary of British Armorials (1874) and Balfour Paul, An Ordinary of Arms (Scotland, 1893): sort arms by their design and name who bears them.

Only sure matches are counted (same name in Renesse, a confirmed entry in Papworth). Each coat’s page lists every citation, with a link to the scanned printed page.
