[Gatesedge] Heraldry Announcements

[D. Vandever]

Greetings unto the Populace from your humble Herald!

The December Letter of Acceptances and Returns has been posted from the Star
Principal Herald and the following pertained to Gate's Edge:

Returned:

James Hamilton
     This name is being returned for conflict with James Hamilton
(1606-1649), third Marquess and first Duke of Hamilton, who has his own
entry in the Encyclopedia Britannica.

A holding name of James of Gate's Edge has been created so that his armory
could be registered.

Accepted:

James of Gate's Edge.  Holding name and Device.  Per saltire argent and
vert, in pale two dragons rampant and in fess two roundels counterchanged.

Congratulations on the registration of your device.  Would M'lord James of
Gate's Edge please contact me privately?  I would like to help with your
name and I also have no record of your submission.  If you put it thru a
consultation table, then I would have no records and I could really use
them.  Contact me at:

hlannes at ev1.net

Also, could Lord Ciaran please contact me privately?  I have no records
concerning your submission and registered name.  I really need these for my
records and would like to get with you to procure a copy.

I would also like to announce that the March Order of Precedence has been
updated.  The awards given at Pestilence Ball have been entered into the
updated OP.  Please double check your entry to make sure that it has been
entered.  I did check on several but it is fun to see it for yourself.  :)
Linnet of Lindisfarne has been updated from Kealani of Gate's Edge.  You can
view the new OP at:

Until then, I remain....

In Service,
HL Annes Clotilde von Bamburg
Herald, Gate's Edge
Dear God,  Help me to be the person
my dog thinks I am.  Amen
