To the right Honourable ROBERT Earl of AYLESBURY Deputy with his Majesties approbation to the most Noble HENRY Duke of NORFOLK Earl-Marshal of ENGLAND My Lord SUch have been the extravagant Actings of Paynters and other Mechanicks in this licentious Age that to satisfie those who are open handed to them they have not stuck to depict Arms only for divers younger branches of Families with undue distinctions if any at all but to allow them to such as do bear the same appellation though of no alliance to that stock the permission whereof hath given such encouragement to those who are guilty of this boldness that there are not a few who do already begin to prescribe as of right thereto so that these Marks of Honour called Arms are now by most people grown of little esteem for apparent it is that they make the Crescent which is the known filial distinction for the second Son to be also the only proper difference of the Grandson and heir of that second Son and of his heires male and a Mullet upon a Crescent and a Martlet upon the same Mullet to be the distinction for a fourth Son of a third Brother whose Father was the second Son of the chief stock and according to that rule do for the most part frame their Differences for others Against this absurd usage therefore I have thought it requisite not only to offer to your Lordship the light of reason which ought to be the principal guide but the irrfragable Authoritie of several persons of great Learning and high estimation for their knowledge in points of Honour and Arms and likewise to give instance by sundry important presidents as to the usage of ancient times when order and regularity were held in repute not doubting but that your Lordship will in this point be so far satisfyed as that for the future some restraint may be put to those undue practises Resting Your Lordships most obedient Servant WILLIAM DUGDALE Garter principal King of Arms. 10.

fortune that he had title to divers and several countries and that he would make wars to them all at once yet should it not be needful to him to shew forth any more marks quartered in one Standard but onely unto every several Country the Arms of that nation quartered with his own But this being the case of Kings and Princes wherein amongst others our most famous noble and worthy Kings and princes of this land have shewed themselves most prudent and wise to what purpose is it that others bring out commanders under their prince and which of themselves have neither title to country nor are able to maintain wars should in their princes service pester their Banners and shields with such an infinite number as many do And in this point I cannot enough commend the Baron of Stafford who herein sheweth his great skill and temperance for although his Ancestors have had title to quarter the marks of that valiant Thomas of Woodstock youngest son of King Edward the third Earl of Buckingham and Duke of Glocester of Bohune Earl of Hereford and Northamton and high Cunstable of England and also of that great house of Somerset which by their ancestors John Earl of Somerset younger son to John of Gaunt descended from the same king Edward the third I omit to speak of divers Barons and others of great estate whose heires both with revenue and honor enlarged greatly his family yet the said Baron contents himself with the paternal mark of his house It were to be wished that this matter of Quartering should be reformed as well for untruths therein oftentimes committed as for the titles that may be brought in question thereby to lands and Heritages And as being one of the chiefest things that bringeth honour of Armory into disgrace for not long ago heard I one speak in this manner Did I not quoth he know the grandfather of this man speaking of the owner of a Scuchion wherein were quartered many marks to purchase by plain patent although he never were man at Armes both his coat and crest within these forty years and how comes it now to pass that I see his nephew invested in all this Armory numbring many and divers several devices all in one shield by way of quartering this being a very mockery to see a man of no valour or estimation in warlike affairs and the paternal Ancestors of whom for ought that can be proved were not in any late age welders of Arms to entrude themselves into so many Badges of Armory is not the least matter to bring into contempt an order so honourable and necessary as the bearing of Arms is Differences in Arms to younger children and their Descendents Another matter that to my understanding is also to be reformed is the manner of differings which are by the younger Brothers and their posterities laid upon their marks being cressants mollets c. and that such little ones as that a man cannot discern them a very small distance from him which differences are in reason to be made fair plain and large that they may be also as easie to be discover'd as any other Devise that is in the Coat Shield or Banner otherwise they serve not to the purpose for which marks were first ordained And the inconvenience which ensueth of this error will the more easily appear if I but set you down the words of mine Author treating of an accident that happened in such a case which be these Et feist Mr. Robert Baileul alter sa Banniere tout devant en escriant Moriannes les Henuiers qui ia estoint esthauses Aperceurent la Banniere de Moriannes qui encore estoit tout Droicte si cuiderent que ce feust la leur ou ilz se deuoient radresser car mult petitey auoit de difference de lune a l'autre car les Armes Moriennes sount Barres contre Barres d' Argent d' Azure a deux Cheverons de Gueules Et le cheveron de Mr. Robert auoit vne petite crosete d'or si ne l'adviserent mye bien les Hennuiers ainsi vindrent bouter de fait dessubs la Banniere de Mr. Robert si furent moult fierement reboutes et tous discomfis For these Honours being led by Sir William Baileul thought in the stir and business to have come to his Banner hearing the surname of Moriens called upon and seeing as they supposed their captains ensigne and the difference of Sir Robert being the younger Brother but a little cross upon the upper cheuron they could not appercieve so that the most of them were either slain or taken and the elder Brother the Knight their leader was glad to save himself as well as he might The Lord of Cowcie son in law to King Edward the third suffered also reproch through the hard dealings of the Lord of Chine who raised his Banner against certain Englishmen of Sir Hugh Caveleys company being either the same that Cowcies was or the difference so small as might not be discerned whereby the said Lord Cowcy though he were absâ—nt as far as Austrich had dishonour spoken of him as in the discourse of the Capital I have touched Thus then having shewed by example the harm and inconvenience that cannot but many times happen through the littleness and niceness of such differences I have thought it not amiss to lay before you the differings that antiquity used that by comparing them together you may discern the great wisdom of our ancestors and our own imperfections in this point for want of due consideration which was done at the first by changing of the device born into other colors only but when that would not suffice for the number of leaders many times all of one house then were they forced to vary their marks by adding of either Bars Bends cheurons cheefes quarters Borders labels losinges or such like and very seldome should you see in those times cressant mollet or such like small thing born for a difference and if any did yet was the same so large and fair that it might be seen as well as any other device which should be in the Shield or Banner And for the proof I will give you the example but of one house onely for your better information though I could do the like of many others namely that of the Bassets who indeed in my judgment varied their marks of honour very finely and that upon good respect A multitude more as my authour hath already hinted were it not for brevityes sake might be instanced from the practise of sundry branches of Noble-families whereof I shall only make mention of some few which are not unknown to most pretenders to Herauldry Such are those of Grey of Codnore

Precedency publish'd at Edinburgh 1680 together with another of Heraldry both written by himself being a person eminently renow'd for his several other excellent works having at large discoursed of the Precedency due to the Arch-Bishops of Scotland to the end that no injury be done to them by concealing their just right therein I shall here transcribe what he saith as to that point I find by a letter in An. 1625 that before King James his going into England the Marquesses of Scotland did take place from the Arch-bishops And by a letter in An. 1626 renew'd in An. 1664. The Arch-bishop of St. Andrews is to take place before all subjects Yet I think this will not give him place from the Kings Sons Uncles and Nephews though they be likewise subjects since the word subjects must be here interpreted according to the custom of Nations by which these neare relations of Princes are preferred to all other subjects Yet defacto since the letter the Arch-bishops of St. Andrews ceds to the Lord Chancellor These Advertisements to the Reader are to be prefixt before pag. 67. THE Preface WHereas in the year 1667 a Catalogue of the Baronets of England was by authority published to the end that such as had obtained Patents for that Honour which were not enrolled should by discerning an omission of their names therein take care to supply that defect so that upon a second Impression thereof they might be inserted Now whereas after twelve years and more no Enrollments are yet to be found for sundry persons which have assumed this Title which causeth some to doubt whether they can make any justifiable claime thereto Whereas therefore no person whatsoever ought to take upon them this Title of dignity but such as have been really advanced thereto by Letters Patents under the great Seale of England it is thought fit by the right Honorable Robert Earl of Aylesbury who now exerciseth the Office of Earl Marshall of England that this present Catalogue of such touching whom the Docquet-books remaining with the-Clerk of the Crown in Chancery do take notice shall be published to the end that those of whom no memorial upon Record is to be found to justifie their right to this Title may be known and care henceforth taken in Commissions of the peace and otherwise that it be not given unto them until they shall manifest the same unto the Lord Chancellor of England and have speciall order from his Lordship to enroll such Patents whereby they pretend Title to that dignity As also that regard be had of giving credit to any other Catalogues of the Baronets which are already publisht or that shall be publisht than what is taken from the authority of those Docquet-books above mentioned or the Enrollment of their Patents BARONETS Created by King James Anno Dom. 1611.
