 Blazon of Arms granted to Sir John Cheeke in 1552 |
|
This representation of the Blazon of Arms granted
to Sir John Cheeke in 1552 was done by Phyllis Hayes' father, Robert
Vanston. The emblems around the edge was all done by hand with pen
and ink. Each line is a stroke. He did this in 1970. We appreciate
Phyllis sharing this with us. A red crescent with a silver cross coming up from
the horns. |
