COATS OF ARMS

Careful examination of the descriptions of Coats of Arms in this section will reveal some interesting differences. These differences may not always appear in drawings e.g. the Falcon and the Hawk are in heraldry indistinguishable and have a smooth head. They are represented as close unless otherwise blazoned. Differences which are material, such as red or yellow lions, theinclusion of a motif in the corner of the third quarter, the direction in which the sword points, or the motto, were used to distinguish one family from another.

This Coat ofArms, which has an empty scroll at the foot of the shield, withthe name displayed beneath the scroll was seen in colour plateIII in "Irish Families" by Edward MacLaysaght.

(2) The drawing of another Coat of Arms, Crest and Motto looks exactly like the one described in (1) above except that: - (a) The lions were drawn in an older style. (b) The crest is on a wreath of the colours. This is normal for all Coats ofArms.

[THE GENERAL ARMORY by Burke -p172] This Coat of Arms includes a cross, which has a specialsignificance as a religious emblem. Fairbairns Book of Crests ofthe Families of Great Britain and Ireland - Vol 1 - P102,includes in the crest "sprouting, to the dexter" aftertree.

The differences between the two Coats of Arms,which are significant, have been underlined in the plain languagedescriptions. Kathleen Eily O'Carroll, was the daughter ofFrederick John Chrysostom Joseph Locke O'Carroll, named above.

NOTE: A daughter who inherits different Coats ofArms from her father and from her mother would use her father'sarms in the 1st and 4th quarters and her mother's arms in the 2ndand 3rd quarters. A husband who did not inherit his own armswould use his wife's arms with her father's pronominal coat inthe top left corner of the 3rd quarter. The falcons in the 2ndand 3rd quarters being the same as in the crest suggest that amother and father were from the same family at one stage. Thesetwo descriptions suggest that an Irish person with a quarteredCoat of Arms and a person with the Warren Coat of Arms married.The two Coats of Arms were then merged with the checkered 3rdquarter of the Coat of Arms for the Irish person being replacedwith one containing the cross, or the lion to represent theWarren family. There is a French Coat of Arms for Warren which isidentical to the Coat of Arms with a small lion in the thirdquarter.

A description similar to items (5) and (6) above but with a crossof St. Andrew in place of the lion in the 3rd quarter is found inFox-Davies' genealogy.

Some Coats of Arms exist with `Seatar Aboe' in a scroll above the crest. This Irish warcry is pronounced "shatar abu" meaning "Get out ofthe way" or "Make way"

O'Carroll appears in a scroll above thecrest. On the back are two labels. One shows their address asFrench Furze Grove, Kildare, Co. Kildare, Republic of Ireland,Telephone 045-21547.

It is produced by Classic Designs Ltd, and published byUnit 8, The Blarney, County Cork, Ireland. Printed on the back ofit is: - "O'Carroll, Carroll; O Caerbhaill, is the usualIrish form of this genuine ancient native Irish `O' surname. Itmeans, `descendent of Caerbhall' (Charles). There are severaldistinct families so named, of which the following are the bestknown: - (i) of Eile, who derive their name and descend fromCearbhall, lord of Eile, who fought at Clontarf. The head of thisfamily was originally lord of all Eile, which comprised thebaroncies of Clonlisk and Ballybritt, in the present Offaly, andIkerrin and Eliogarty, in Co. Tipperary, until the Anglo- Normaninvasion: (ii) of Oriel, who were chiefs of Oriel until about theperiod of the Anglo-Norman invasion, when they disappear fromhistory; (iii) of Loch Lein (the district about Killarney)anciently chiefs of the Eoghanacht (the race of `Eoghan Mor', sonof `Oillioll Olum', King of Munster in the 3rd century), untildispossessed by the O'Donoghue's; (iv) of Ossary, who aredescended from Caerbhaill, a celebrated chieftain of Ossary atthe middle of the 9th century; (v) of Tara, a branch of thesouthern Ui Neill; (vi) of Calry, in Sligo and Leitrim. MacCearbhaill, the Irish form of the name in some parts of Ulsterand some parts of West Mayo and West Galway, is also a genuineIrish personal name; derivation as above. They were a celebratedfamily of musicians in Ulster. In 1594, the Ballym'Carroll,parcel of lands of Gillekeaghe M'Carroll, and ofBallymack-Carroll, lapsed to the crown. There was also a familyof the name in Leix." -------------
