"The plates, 1-4 French line and 1-8 English line, are copies of the shields represented in the dining hall of Powderham Castle, and are intended both as a key to their arangement, and as a brief record of the family"--Introduction and LC card. The family was part of the French, English and European nobility between 987 A.D. and 1892, and the pedigree chart shows the lineage connections of the nobility families and occasionally with Royal lines (the House of Capet). In England, the nobility line of the family was the Earldom of Devon. |
