The Most Noble Order of the Garter, its History, Ceremony, Coats of Arms and Crests. The Oldest and Highest British Order of Chivalry, founded in 1348 by Edward III. Order, His Royal Highness The Prince of Wales and 24 Knights Companions.  This is what I Found out so far.  |

I don't think he wants us to know. I asked that same question yesterday and asked him to clarify the title of the thread.

Thus is the Royal coat of arms, which includes the phrase from the Order of the Garter, and is used on a variety if offical material - eg passports. What's the document that yours is on? |

Im still trying to figure it out my self. But I think it is some thing to do with a land sale from a Knight or something still working on the wax seals and resurching the name. This is the closest to the Crest that I came to so far. AS of Today.  |

I think, those are the arms of an early British Hannoverian dinasty king: perhaps George II? |

This Documant is dated 1807 but this crest is of the words of King George the III.Can the history be wrong King George the II came up with the frase .According to historian Elias Ashmole, the foundation of the Garter occurred when King Edward III of England prepared for the Battle of Crécy and gave "forth his own garter as the signal." Another theory suggests "a trivial mishap at a court function" when King Edward III was dancing with Joan of Kent, his first cousin and daughter-in-law. Her garter slipped down to her ankle causing those around her to snigger at her humiliation.[6] In an act of chivalry Edward placed the garter around his own leg saying, "Honi soit qui mal y pense. Tel qui s'en rit aujourd'hui, s'honorera de la porter."[7] |
