The Crest of Bandinel
Posted: 05 Jun 2017, 12:08
I was flicking through Fairbairn's today and came across a very interesting crest:
"A helmet close, crested with a plume of feathers ppr."
This is on Page 32 of volume 1 of the fourth edition, with the image being number 4 on plate 180.
You can see an image of the arms and information about the family here.
Further research reveals this is nowhere near as anomalous as I thought. Some of the other families seem to be perfectly British and are not in the peerage, so they would, I suppose, be able to put a helm on a helm.
