Merritt family "Coat of Arms'
I have received many mails and inquiries to why there are so many different Merritt Coat of Arms.The reason is very simple.There is no such thing as a family coat of arms.
Coat of Arms belong to individuals.For a person th have a right to a coat of arms they must either have had it granted to ehem or be descended in the ligitimate male line from a person to whom arms were granted.So beware of the sites that sell family arms.Before you buy, do your homework.I suggest you start here http://www.college-of-arms.gov.uk/http://www.college-of-arms.gov.uk/.good luckLarry
