Family Angel
© Rosslyn Templars
This is another image of the 'Saint Clair angel' which has previously been shown previously. To see and compare that image with this click here.
This angel is shown holding a shield with an engrailed cross thereon. Part of the armorial bearings of the St Clairs of Rosslyn was a black engrailed cross upon a white background. In this the colours are important as other families also used engrailed crosses but with a different colour or orientation.
In due time the Rosslyn Templars shall provide some images of these different heraldic devices.
