Bayonne Family Crest


The Bayonne Family Crest

The blazon of arms for this coat of arms is described as follows:

Shield

The shield is "quartered"; upper left, lower right silver with yellow right, lower left shield shield colors.

The silver crescents in each gold (Or, representing generosity and elevation of the mind) segment of the shield denotes one who has been honored by the sovereign; hope of greater glory (horns to the chief).

The royal blue (azure) sun forms on each silver quadrant define glory and splendour; fountain of life. Azure used in the sun and in the signifies truth and loyalty.

Mantling


The mantling of "exquisite plus" is colored in silver (peace and serenity) and azure and frames a centered helmet.

Helmet


The silver helmet above the shield facing forward determines the royal status of Bayonne in a swaggering motif with six encrusted rubies ( one rectangle cut on alternative sides of the neck, a
larger rectangle at the front right and left of the breastplate and one large oval-cut on the left and right shoulders).

I think that the crest is awsome...i believe we should do something different and unique this year...lets figure out what generations will be attending the reunion and how many they are...the oldest generation can have on one color shirt and their children would be the second generation with another color shirt and the grandchildren would have on another color shirt and so on and so forth...all the shirts would be designed the same with the family crest...the back of the shirts can contain simple information...for instance for the first generation they might have a white shirt with the family crest and the title of the family reunion on the front,same as ever other generations shirt...but the back of the shirt would tell how many people are in that generation and that there the 1st generation...if anyone is intersted in seeing my idea leave your email as a blog and i will email you and example of what i am talking about...
