		Ancestry: mostly pure-blood; descendants of mixed blood are not recognized by the family.
		Sirius had an "Aunt Elladora" who started the family tradition of beheading house-elves when they got too old to carry tea trays (OP6); it is unclear whether this is the same person as Phineas' sister.
		According to Sirius, one could be disowned for disagreeing with the belief in pure-blood supremacy, being "blood traitors," or marrying a Muggle, Muggle-born or a half-blood wizard.

		Family members should try to measure their actions against the motto, to challenge themselves to live up to their life's message.
		Families as well as farms have distinguishing traits of character, and there are always some of these on which a family prides itself.
		Such a motto would be a help in keeping the family up to standard by giving the members a cause for pride in it and what it represents; it might even be a help in raising the standard of family life and honor.

	Home Faith - List Serve
		I once had a professor in college who told us that he and his wife had chosen a motto for their family: "Do what love requires." They tried to measure their behavior against this motto, to challenge themselves to live up to it.
		Motto may be a corny word, but it points to something deep: The Meaning of Life.
		A motto of, "What can I bring to this world that I’m a part of?" will lead to vastly different choices than "What’s the world done for me today?" "Less is more" will produce a different family than "He who dies with the most toys wins."

	The Family Dinner
		Perhaps these relationships are established because the family sets aside time to talk to their children through dinner; dinner is also a way for parents to sit down and listen to their children and each other and learn what’s going on in their family member’s lives.
		33.3% of students reported to doing other family activities an average of 2 times per week, as opposed to the 66.7% that eat dinner with their families 5 or more times a week, so dinner appears to be a more prominent family event.
		The majority of students felt close with their families, and setting aside dinner with the family is an important way of showing that family time together is valuble.

	The Bushnell Signet Ring
		This family crest is much more ancient in itself than the motto underneath which dates about the time of the battle of Ivry, 1590.
		The family tradition is that the Le Bourchenelles were the protectors and standard bearers of the kingdom of Navarre, and as such, one of my ancestors had charge of the standard of Henry, King of Navarre, at the battle of Ivry.
		Family members say that this is because the coat of arms motto came first but when King Henry of Navarre found our dead hero, the motto was changed for this line of the family.

	WISE Desc-Page 1
		In common is that the WYSE and WYSEMAN Anglo-Saxons of Scotland used the same family motto "He is wise who is wise of God" and near identical Arms emblazoned with charges in numbers of three, throughout lower Scotland, and in Greston, York and Essex, England.
		An example of the family's migration throughout England is that all the descendants of the famous High Sheriff of Devon, Sir Thomas Wise, KB, MP (d.1629), of Mount Wise, Plymouth, England link to the WISE House of Sydenham, of Devonshire, Wessex, England.
		Sir Andrew Wyse was born in Greston, York, England, was of the WYSE family branch that established the Wise House of Greston in Devonshire, England, served in the 1171 infamous invasion of Ireland by the Earl of Pembroke Richard de Clare (Strongbow), and was granted lands in County Waterford, Ireland for his wartime services.

		This was one of the ways that family names were formed, and used by the individual families to distinguish themselves with pride and honor within their communities.
		Since the name Ledger could indicate a scholarly or financial family background, it is entirely plausible, that the Ledger's originally received their titles and lands because of some financial service to the King.
		The LEDGER family not only held lands and estates in both France and England, but were actively allied with other influential families.

	The Hindmarsh Family (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Although the Arms may not have been register by a Hindmarsh, several families who married Hindmarsh heiresses quartered Hindmarsh Arms and this may be the reason why several versions are recorded at the College.
		It is possible that some members of the Hindmarsh family may have recorded their Arms at a later date but the reputation of the heralds for not maintaining their records in good order is notorious and it is likely that the records have been lost.
		The earliest record of the family motto located to date is in "The British Herald" by Robson - published in 1808, although it must have been in use very much earlier.

		Many families actually trace thier heritage to their ancient tribal roots springing from adversity and triumph over feuding lands, territories and kings.
		Aside from the wonders of the family estates themselves, the key information is that the bulk of the family records lie either on the estate or its region.
