THE LEARNED FAMILY IN AMERICA
Efforts are continuing to locate the original painting, now over two hundred years old.
The continued use of the arms by many members of the family for over two centuries in America gives them cause to claim them as their own, and therefore an illustration of the escutcheon is included in this book.
