I’ve located our name in two places (England and Scotland) I wanted to purchase framed art coat of arms from whichever place documents our name first in their country. England has us in Cheshire UK in 1066 AD during the Battle of Hastings. Can you shed any light on our family name being in Scotland and the earliest date? Whichever has the earliest date is the coat of arms we figured would be the best. We would also like any documentation on our family name that could help us determine the meaning of all of the symbols. My children’s last name will be another one I would like to pursue. They spell their family name “Saillor” however the only one I could find closet to that name is “Sailor” with just one l letter. More than likely it just got changed along the way however could this also mean if our exact spelling of the name can’t be found that my son who is a marine can create their own family crest? We’d still like to know if the 2 ways of spelling the name are actually linked as one and the same. If you could answer the questions it would help us decide on our next steps in purchasing our family coat of arms. Thanks in advance!!
