Members' Roll of
Arms, 21st
September 2021
(Lesser Coat of
Arms).
While,
from 2018 onward, the
bearer devised new arms
following his own
tastes, the familiar,
traditional and
historical arms were
also resurrected after
extensive research.
These historical, 'ab
antiquo', arms were
already registered in:
Edgardo Noya di Bitetto,
"Blasonario Generale di
Terra di Bari", Mola di
Bari, 1912.
Given
that the 'historical'
arms (referred to here
as the 'Lesser Coat of
Arms') belonged to the
heraldic tradition of
the Kingdom of Naples,
followed by the Kingdom
of the Two Sicilies and,
finally, the Kingdom of
Italy, and given that
there are no heraldic
authorities officially
operating in these
Italian-speaking areas,
the bearer decided to
petition for a
certification of arms
from the Cronista de
Armas of Castilla y Leon
to 'refresh' the status
of his arms: his
petition was accepted
and the certification
was issued in December
2021.
At
the end of 2022, the
bearer decided to
petition the Cronista de
Armas of Castilla y Leon
for a certification of
newly devised arms
joining his previously
assumed arms with the
historical arms
(referred to as the
'Greater Coat of Arms'
): his petition was
accepted, and the
certification was issued
in December 2022.
The
legitimate and natural
heirs and/or those who
will succeed each other
by testamentary
designation have the
right to the coats of
arms.
