Summary
[edit]DescriptionGiffardHeraldicPanelTivertonChurch.JPG |
English: Heraldic achievement of Roger Giffard (d.1603) of Tiverton Castle. John Giffard was the eldest son and heir of Arthur Giffard (1580–1616) by his wife Agnes Leigh (died 1625), a daughter of Thomas Leigh of Burrough (anciently "Borow", "Borough", etc.) in the parish of Northam, near Bideford. Arthur had predeceased his own father John Giffard (died 1622), of Brightley. (Vivian, Lt.Col. J.L., (Ed.) The Visitations of the County of Devon: Comprising the Heralds' Visitations of 1531, 1564 & 1620. Exeter, 1895, pedigree of Giffard) Detail from his mural monument, north chancel wall, Tiverton Church, Devon. Arms: 1st: Giffard; 2nd: Coblegh of Brightley; 3rd Stucley; 4th: unknown. Atop the helm is the crest of Giffard: A cock's head erased in its beak an ear of wheat. The motto in French Pul/i Que Fort, the second two words of which (taken together) appear to be a play on the surname "Gifford" ("Quefort"), the first two taken together possibly being "puisque" (a conjunctive "as, since, seeing that, since" or a word denoting intensification), thus perhaps signifying "Really Strong", a martial-like motto. "Plus que fort" would siginify "more than strong". Contrast motto of Fortescue family, another prominent Devon family, which also plays on the surname: "Forte Scutum Salus Ducum" ("A Strong Shield is the Salvation of Leaders") |
