Acceptances under Ansteorra in the December 2010 LoAR.  No Returns.
 
Daria Riley. Name change from Daria of Atlantia. 

Commenters were able to confirm that Saint Daria, a Roman martyr, was venerated in England during our period. Edelweiss was able to document Riley as a 16th century English surname. Therefore, this can be registered as an entirely English name.
Eric the Carver. Reblazon of device. Quarterly azure and argent, in fess a drinking horn palewise sustained by a sinister gauntlet fesswise aversant Or. 

Blazoned when registered, in November of 1993, as Quarterly azure and argent, a sinister gauntlet fesswise aversant maintaining a drinking horn Or, our standards for maintained charges have changed over time. Under current standards, the horn is co-primary with the gauntlet.
Fionnghuala Ruadh inghean Ui Chonchobhair. Device. Per chevron Or and argent, a chevron sable between two greyhounds combatant azure and an open book gules. 


Kenneth of Hellsgate. Name and device. Vert, a chevron inverted and in chief two lions combatant Or. 

Kenneth is dated to 1641 in the "Records of the Parliaments of Scotland to 1707" (http://www.rps.ac.uk/). Hellsgate is the registered name of an SCA branch.
Please inform the submitter that the chevron can move slightly down the field so that the lions can be drawn larger.
Lucas de Argent. Name and device. Azure, a triskelion of armored legs and a chief embattled argent. 

Nice device!
Melisenda de Barcelona. Badge. Purpure, a dexter fist fesswise with its index finger extended Or. 

This badge is clear of the device of Eric the Carver, Quarterly azure and argent, in fess a drinking horn palewise sustained by a sinister gauntlet fesswise aversant Or, reblazoned elsewhere in this letter. There is a CD for the changes to the field and a CD for the change to the number of primary charges. It is also clear of the device of Maynard of Dark River, Purpure, a gauntleted cubit arm issuant from base Or sustaining a candle fesswise argent lit at both ends Or, also reblazoned elsewhere in this Letter. There is a CD for the change of number of primary charges and a CD for the change of orientation of the primary charges: there is no way to go from a palewise fist holding a candle to a fesswise fist in a single step.
Oddus Torcoli. Name. 

Submitted as Oddus Torcoletti, the submitter said that he'd prefer Torcoli, if it could be documented. Torcoli was used in late 14th century Padua, according to Benjamin Kohl's Padua under the Carrara, 1318-1405. We have made the change in order to meet the submitter's request.
The submitter requested authenticity for the 13th century; this name does not meet that request as neither Torcoli or Torcoletti is found that early.
Peregrine of the Crescent Hawks. Reblazon of device. (Fieldless) In pale a hawk rising to sinister gules grasping in its feet a horn Or. 

Blazoned when registered, in September 1990, as (Fieldless) A hawk rising to sinister gules grasping in its talons a bugle-horn stringed Or, the charges are now considered co-primary charges.
