Looking to find my family’s traditional coat of arms/crest?
I want to try and trace my family’s historical coat of arms, but haven’t yet found a decent site. Anyone have any to give?
I’m sorry if you took offense to my question, grannytoad…The reason I ask is that my father claims to have seen the family crest when he was a boy in Spain. However, he’s rather old now, and says he doesn’t remember anything of what it looked like. I’m trying to see if he was correct and such a crest really exists, and if he is, I’m curious to try and find it. Decor or not, it’s always interesting to delve into some form of your history or another…

Since you mention Spain, I’ll assume you need Hispanic records. I agree there is a valid middle ground between the numerous sites “BUY YOUR FAMILY CREST NOW AND GET A FREE COFFEE MUG”… and valid sites that have scholarly information regarding heraldry (and proper use thereof). I have looked at some of the rip off sites, checked certain of my names.. and know they are full of bovine excrement. Sadly, many of the persons posting here, don’t care if they are getting scammed or not.
For background, if an ancestor had a legitimate claim to heraldry, the bonus is that your line is far more likely to have preserved accurate genealogical records that you can “tie” into.
