Heritage and Heraldry Disclaimer

The surname histories, tartans, crests, coats of arms, mottos and other heritage information presented on this website are compiled and interpreted from historical, heraldic and reference sources.

Historical information and artwork may vary between sources, family branches, regions and periods. Our content and products are provided for decorative, educational and general heritage-interest purposes. They do not constitute:

  • Certified genealogical research

  • Legal proof of ancestry or family connection

  • An official grant of arms

  • Proof of an individual entitlement to bear a coat of arms

  • Professional legal, historical or genealogical advice

Customers seeking to establish an official entitlement to arms should consult the appropriate heraldic authority and conduct documented genealogical research.

Copyright and Intellectual Property

Unless otherwise stated, the original website text, product descriptions, page layouts, product presentations, digital compositions and custom artwork displayed by The Family Crest Company are protected by applicable copyright and intellectual-property laws.

No content may be copied, reproduced, redistributed, republished, sold or used commercially without prior written permission.

Historical surnames, public-domain heraldic elements and traditional symbols may not be exclusively owned by The Family Crest Company. However, our original redrawing, arrangement, formatting, digital production files and presentation of those elements remain protected to the extent permitted by law.

Accuracy of Information

We make reasonable efforts to provide accurate information. However, because historical and heraldic sources can conflict or change through further research, we do not guarantee that every interpretation is complete, definitive or applicable to every person sharing a surname.

If you believe information or artwork has been attributed incorrectly, contact us at support@familycrestcompany.com so we can review the concern.
