Howdy all,
This just resurfaced after being moth balled for a year or two. Wanted to
see if the docs were still good and there still were no conflicts:
Conchobar - OCorrain and MacGuire, "Irish Names", pg 57, s.n. 'Conchobhar',
lists as being seen from 882 to the middle ages
mac Aonghuis - Woulfe, "Irish Names and Surnames", pg 320, s.n. mac
Aonghuis, (no date)
Basically this would be pronounced 'Conner mac Anghus' I think. There are a
fair number of ways to get 'Angus' in period and I do not have a listing of
all the ways so if someone does and can conflict check it I would appreciate
it.
What I had originally for the device is not longer acceptable for the
submitter. He wants:
'Argent, three wolves courant in annulo sable' and will accept a bordure
vert if necessary.
He may also accept basically the opposite in tinctures (Sable field with
white puppies) and an appropriate tincture change for the bordure if
necessary.
I remember something similar being submitted by another kingdom to Laurel,
but the tinctures were completely different and I have no idea if it passed
or not.
Let me know what you can find out so I can get this into submission before
it falls into another black hole
Thanks
Borek
