What is Heraldry?
Peter O'Donoghue (Bluemantle Pursuivant ) gives expert video advice on: What is Heraldry?; What is a pedigree?; How do I begin to research my pedigree? and more...
Heraldry is the hereditary, systematic use of an arrangement of devices such as lions, eagles or geometrical shapes, centred upon a shield.
