For those who are interested in the heraldry, or Coats of Arms, associated with the Tweedie & Tweedy family, there are now displayed online at:
www.heraldry-online.org.uk
The Arms are in two sections, those that are officially recorded in Scotland at the Lyon Court (1672-1973) and those that are documented elsewhere. It must be noted that the Arms displayed are the property solely of those named or their descendants. They cannot be used by anyone else, even if they do share the same surname.
The Lyon Clerk, Mrs Elizabeth Roads, noted that the Tweedies were not very good at registering their Arms as required by Scottish law. Therefore, there may be other Arms in use of some antiquity, however, they are not technically legal in Scotland until recorded, or matriculated, with the Court of Lord Lyon.
