[Lindenwood] New Herald

[Virginia Gatling]

Greetings Lindenwood from your new Herald!

I'm not sure how I will proceed from here but I hope all of you will work with me while I enter into this venture. I was a Herald for many areas in the late 80's and early 90's.I had a reputation for helping people get what they wanted for their name and device ( some where pretty bad but the owners love them).I have a few reference books left and the rest of my heraldry books and "stuff" was donated to Elfsea earlier this year. I will also have new research items in the near future. I will work with you on getting your name and device registered but I won't do all the work for you, after all this is a learning tool.

I would like to get an idea of how many persons are in Lindenwood, how many have their name and device registered and how many are working on their name and device. I would like to start a book of Lindenwood Heraldry.

One of the items I would like to see in the future is for all of Lindenwood to have banners, tunics or other items all done with their devices or badges on them. It would be nice if Lindenwood had all of its own regalia (banners, runners, table coverings, Pavilion, chairs etc.) with the Lindenwood device. I know that we can all work together for this to happen. It would be a grand showing when we have events!

I also have a basic heraldry handout I used many years ago for all my household members to learn their heraldry. I am working on it and hopefully will have some available at Elfsea Defender for Lindenwood members. Please stop by and see me at Defender and sign the Lindenwood Register that will be on a table in my pavilion. I will try and answer questions and listen to your ideas of things we can accomplish together for the herald office. One of my goals is for everyone to know basic heraldry another is period ambiance at events.

 It is a great feeling to walk along a path or around a list field and get the feeling that you are back in the era of the day, those feelings don't occur very often but they remain with you forever. It only takes a little effort from everyone to create the dream. Heraldry plays a big part in that dream!

My phone number is 972-937-2820, cell 972-935-6045, email ginlee at cnbcom.net . See you at Elfsea Defender!

Always In Service,
Regina Gunnvor Morningstar
