Re: Livery buttons
Two more that might be of interest to you
Bottom one is for any of the following families Cosgrave, Goddard, Hutchon, Justine, Ketford, Quelch - there will probably be more, local research may come up trumps

Re: Livery buttons
It could be Stanhope of Harrington, lion looks very similar and ties in with Staffordshire

Re: Livery buttons
Sorry to say that you are Mitchell, as the lion is issuing out of a tower and it has an arrow in it's neck. A creditable tryMitchell wrote:I'm probably wrong
It is a hard one to find as demi lions with an object in their paws is a very common crest and so far this one has defeated me The main sticking point is exactly what is held in the paws as it is not too clear. It appears to me to be a leopards head or even a human head, but I am open to suggestions. I will continue the quest, thanks for posting it up Barry

Re: Livery buttons
Thanks for looking Kev, All I can see is a perfect circle outline, anything inside it could be down to corrosion!

It could be any of these names, none of which I can tie in to Wiltshire. Any of them seem familiar for your area?
Atfoe, Atsoe, Bec, Beck, Canton, Docksey, Hamer, Henry, Home, Lyons, Peers, Sheridan, Sheriden, Wren.

Re: Livery buttons
There are many that use the "demi griffin" as their family crest, may be you can spot a local family amongst the names in this link http://www.familysealrings.com/Crests/64-2.html

Re: Livery buttons
Was the button found far from Caulfield?
That crest was used by the "Honourable Edward Dundas HOLROYD, K.C., of Fernacres, Alma Road, Caulfield, near Melbourne, Victoria, Australia, Judge of the Supreme Court of Victoria."

Re: Livery buttons
The left hand side is most likely for the Roche family (a play on words called 'canting' for the 3 roaches) from Bromham in Wilts and as it shows the hand of Ulster symbol he would have been a Baron. Still looking for the other side which will be the wife's side of the family. Some info here Click Heretinner wrote:any ideas on this kev
