Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Monograph of the Anderson, Clark, Marshall and McArthur Connection
Crests and escutcheons are only important as cattle brands to show to what herd one belongs. When men covered their faces with pot metal visors, it was necessary to have some device to distinguish them.
Where families have no hereditary titles or landed estates held from generation to generation, their genealogical records are apt to become obscured; but we have in this country the compensating advantage that any man can become, as Napoleon said, the Rudolph of Hapsburg of his family.
