Our Family Crest and Coat of Arms

Our family Crest and Coat of Arms

The Napier Surname is originally from Scotland
The most ancient Coat of Arms attributed to a bearer of this name was:
Silver with a red cross between four red roses.
The Crest was:
A right arm grasping a crescent.
The ancient family motto for this distinguished name was:
"Ready"

The Fore Surname originated in France.
The Coat of Arms for the family name Fore was:
A green shield with a gold fess.
The Crest for the family was:
Two silver lions combatant.
The family motto was:
"Tout travers" which according to my internet translation means "all breadth"

Our family Crest and Coat of Arms were researched and made in England. All embroidery was done by hand and much of the embroidery was done with gold thread. An investment we'll treasure forever!
