Hmmmm... looks like I'm passing kin to Vermis, in that both our families were border reivers.

By Paternal Grandfather (adoption):

(sorry, couldn't get the images to link properly)

Oh yeah, almost forgot the Scottish clan: ?

So, which one do I pick?  If I remember my heraldry correctly, my personal crest is supposed to be a mix of all 5, and is therefore going to be even busier than the Maryland flag.  (yuck!)

That's comprehensive. :)  And it might be just me, but I detect a certain blue-and-yellow theme.

Thanks for posting that clan Scott link.  It's cleared up the problem of that fridge magnet my Mum has, that looks nothing like the coat of arms.  Because it's a clan badge.
Unfortunately I can't find anything online that isn't from some online shop that won't let you see the badge unless you buy it on their merchandise.  I'll have to see if I can borrow that magnet (yeah, I know.  It's merchandise. :p) and scan it in.

What can I say, except 'woad be unto you' for not wearing blue.

I'll just use the Slammer Insignia (my Avatar) as my family crest !  Close enough !  LOL !  :;):
