1. As with so many armorial terms the word "quarterings" is not used in a conventional way and applied to a shield divided merely into four; indeed there can be as many "quarterings" as there are family affiliations - perhaps the record is held by the five-surnamed Temple-Nugent-Brydges-Chandos-Grenville family, whose full achievement of arms boasts 719 quarterings.
2. Armorial bearing of Charles V from the heraldic ceiling.
3. The second system of marshalling armorial bearings to broadcast marital relationship is to adopt an "escutcheon of pretence".
4. This fashion of dimidiation was abandoned by at least the late fourteenth century and replaced by the style of compressing each set of armorial bearings onto one half of the shield - the husband's being placed on the dexter and the wife's on the sinister.
5. The word "marshalling" is used in this context in its meaning of combining , hence the marshalling of arms is the "discipline of assembling the constituent elements of a coat of arms, and the various devices of which each is composed, in a manner which is in accordance with accepted armorial practice and convention.
6. Valuable clues to marital alliances are contained in two conventions for the depiction of armorial bearings of a man and his wife, known as impalement and escutcheon of pretence.
7. To take but one example from the many available, a well-known medieval armorial design comprises a shield with three spike-like shapes starting from the top edge of the shield, points downward and meeting towards the bottom.
8. Through the British, the Indian princes acquired armorial bearings, a strict order of precedence, salutes, and much other paraphernalia of an invented tradition.
9. From time to time persons distinguished in the fields of making war, healing, diplomacy, or mere grace in the sight of kings, have been granted augmentations to their armorial bearings; and the discovery of, and comment on, these can - where they are relevant - make a small but useful contribution to the rounding out of a local history.
10. There was, and perhaps still is, a school of thought which asserted that armorial devices were assumed for identification in battle, but both research and common sense say this is probably wrong, for as so many knights chose arms of similar design, the mud, blood and turmoil of battle would have rendered such symbols on shields of little value, although the same cannot, of course, be said about armorial banners or pennons bravely waving above rallying points or on the ends of lances.
11. In particular, the correct ordering of combinations of armorial devices in a single coat to signify marriage, inheritance or office" (Friar op cit ).
12. At first sight both the earlier and later languages of blazon appear somewhat esoteric, but they readily yield up their secrets, being based on a comparatively small vocabulary, the words of which describe quite accurately both the colours (tinctures), layout, and principal devices used in armorial design.
