For the August 2002 meetings, printed November 14, 2002
To all the College of Arms and all others who may read this
missive, from François Laurel, Zenobia Wreath, Mari Pelican, and
Margaret Cornelian, health and good friendship.
Herein are corrections to various Letters of Acceptances and
Returns and the Armorial:
August 1979
EAST
Ealasaid nic Phearsoinn. Device correction. Per

unicorn passant, all counterchanged.
The original blazon omitted the posture of the
unicorn.
August 1983
ANSTEORRA
Shadowlands, Shire of the. Guild name
Sterregazerers Gylde of the Shire of the Shadowlands.
The LoAR read "*Shadowlands, Shire of the. (badge for
the Sterregazerers Gylde of the Shire of the Shadowlands). Sable, a
comet bendwise sinister Or between in bend a mullet of nine points and
an increscent argent." The guild name should have been explicitly
registered and it was not.
April 1984
EAST
Mountain Confederation. Badge correction. Per
fess embattled azure and Or, a tyger sejant erect Or and a
triple-peaked mountain issuant from base azure.
The original blazon omitted the tincture of the
tyger.
April 1990
EAST
Æthelmearc, Kingdom of. Order name Order of
the Keystone.
The original LoAR failed to note the registration of
the order name at the time the badge for the order was
registered.
June 1992
ANSTEORRA
Dimitrii Sviatoslav Varulovich Polynov. Device
correction. Gules, a tau cross within an orle of mascles Or.
In the original blazon, it was unclear whether the
mascles were charges on an orle or just arranged in
orle.
May 1998
EAST
Catriona of Downpatrick. Device
correction. Sable, two needles in saltire Or between four double roses
Or and gules.
In the original blazon, the tincture of the needles was
unclear.
February 1999
MIDDLE
Kenric Bjarnarson. Badge
correction. (Fieldless) On a lozenge ployé vert two pheons in pale

lozenge.
August 1999
CAID
Judwiga Czarna Pika ze Smocza Jamy. Conversion
of device to badge. Or, a heart per pale indented sable and gules
within a bordure vert.
When the submitter registered a new device in August
1999, the LoAR did not indicate the disposition of her previous
device, shown here. The previous device has been maintained in the
Ordinary and Armorial as a second device. This must be corrected,
since the Administrative Handbook section II.D.1 only allows any
individual submitter to have one device. The submitter's paperwork
shows that she had intended the previous device to be maintained as a
badge.
November 1999
ATLANTIA
Atlantia, Kingdom of. Ensign. Per pale argent
and azure, a fess wavy cotised counterchanged.
The LoAR failed to note that this badge was for the
ensign of Atlantia.
April 2000

correction. Azure, a chevron engrailed between two fleurs-de-lys and a
swan naiant contourny argent.

blazon.

sinister sable and argent, a hawk displayed fesswise reversed argent
and a peacock feather bendwise sinister vert.

The original blazon omitted the orientation of the

June 2002
ÆTHELMEARC
Alaxandair Ó Conchobhair. Name correction
from Alaxandair O Conchobhair.
In registering his badge, the LoAR misspelled his name
as Alaxandair O Conchobhair. The above is the registered
spelling.
Geoffrey de Montgomeri. Name correction from
Geoffrey de Montgomery.
The name was listed on the LoI and LoAR as Geoffrey
de Montgomery, but both the forms and the documentation
show the spelling as Geoffrey de
Montgomeri.

Acceptance of transfer of badge for House Azami from Ysabeau Cameron
and Laeghaire O Laverty. Argent, in pall inverted three thistles,
slipped and leaved, conjoined at the slips, all within a bordure
sable.
The forms indicated that this was a transfer of
household name and badge, but the LoAR failed to note the transfer of
badge.
Ysabeau Cameron and Laeghaire O Laverty.
Transfer of badge for House Azami to Ranulf of Waterford and Caitlyn
O'Duirnin. Argent, in pall inverted three thistles, slipped and
leaved, conjoined at the slips, all within a bordure sable.
The forms indicated that this was a transfer of

was returned in the April 2002 LoAR.
July 2002
ATENVELDT
Cosimo Orsini. Name.
The LoAR returned his name and device, saying that they
had been withdrawn by the submitter. However, only his device had been
withdrawn.
Fintán mac Meic Con. Name correction from
Fintán Mac Con and commentary.
Pelican changed the name as reflected in the commentary
below, but the name change was not recorded on the LoAR:
Submitted as Fintán Mac Con, the submitter
requested authenticity for Irish. Mac Con is a Gaelic masculine
given name. As period Irish Gaelic did not use either unmarked
patronymics or double given names, this name is not registerable in
the submitted form. The early form of a patronymic byname based on
Mac Con would be mac Meic Con. We have changed the name
to a consistently early form to meet the submitter's request for
authenticity.
