Summary
[edit]DescriptionWaye (of Torrington) Arms.png |
English: Arms of Waye of Torrington in Devon: Gules, a chevron or between three lucies hauriant argent (Vivian, Lt.Col. J.L., (Ed.) The Visitations of the County of Devon: Comprising the Heralds' Visitations of 1531, 1564 & 1620, Exeter, 1895, p.773). Pole, p.506, who blazons the arms as Gules, a chevron between three fishes naiant argent, thus with chevron argent not or and with the unnamed fish naiant not hauriant. These arms of Waye of Marsh are however sculpted (without tinctures) quartered by Kirkham of Blagdon in the 16th century Kirkham Chantry of Paignton Church, and show a chevron with fish hauriant, as per Vivian's blazon. Nicholas Kirkham (d.1516) of Blagdon married Jane Waye, daughter and heiress of Robert Waye of Marsh (Vivian, p.516, pedigree of Kirkham) in the parish of Newton St Cyres (Prince, John, (1643–1723) The Worthies of Devon, 1810 edition, London, p.554). These are similar to the arms displayed in Exeter Guildhall, Devon, of "John Waye, Sheriff (of Exeter) 1541", shown as Gules, three lucies hauriant in fess argent. They should be distinguished from the completely different arms of Way of St Giles-in-the-Wood, near Great Torrington in Devon, often called "de Via" (i.e. from the way) arms, later apparently adopted by the Pollard family of Way and also by the Davie family (Davy baronets) of Creedy, Devon, which claim their original surname as de Via. |
