Belcher Arms Sketches

The reference is:- William Belcher, Bridges Collection, Bodleian Library, Oxford England
Ref: MS top Northants e.1 3
William Belcher is commended in Guillim`s Display of heraldry 4th edition 1660. He sketched a large number of monuments and heraldic shields which then existed in the churches of the county (Northants). He is mentioned in information on the Belcher`s we prsented in an earlier newsletter.
The book is in the Bodleian Library which contains all the sketches. The sketches have in recent times been stuck onto pages and made into a book.
