Weir, owner and winemaker of Napa's Hagafen Cellars, alongside Mount Maroma by St. Supery in Rutherford, Sonoma's Gan Eden Winery, and the Baron Herzog California label, is revolutionizing kosher wines.
Weir stood in his vineyard one day recently and gestured toward the lush green valley and rolling brown hills around him.

 The name is WEIR!
The Weir family seems to have had a long running feud with the Lockharts, who were accused of many murders during this time but, never punished due to their rank.
Weirs/Veres of Stonebyres and Archtyfardle and Mossmynemion were branches of the Weirs of Blackwood.  In the 1500s a century-old feud between the Weirs of Blackwood and their cousins the Veres of Stonebyres was supposedly ended when the Veres swore allegiance to Weir of Blackwood and acknowledged him as their chief.
The Scottish Weir motto remains the same as the English de VERE motto: "Vero nihil verius" also written as "Vero nil Verius." This can be translated as "Nothing truer than truth" or alternately "Truth nothing but the truth." And the Weir crest is based on the de VERE coat, with the blue boar.

The children of Henry VIII by Alison Weir
The royal family may have its problems these days, but as Alison Weir reminds us in this cohesive and impeccably researched book, the nobility of old England could be both loveless and ruthless.
Weir, an expert in the period and author of a book on Henry's VIII wives, focuses on the children of Henry VIII who reigned successively after his death in 1547: Edward VI, Mary I ("Bloody Mary") and Elizabeth I. The three shared little--living in separate homes--except for a familial legacy of blood and terror.
