Across two royal visitations, the story of a county's ruling families is captured, verified and preserved. Every entry here demands attention. In The Heraldic Visitations of Staffordshire, Sir Richard St George (1614) and Sir William Dugdale (1663-4), both Norroy Kings of Arms, record the staffordshire family pedigrees and english coats of arms submitted to the College of Arms visitations, giving a rare, authoritative glimpse into 17th century Staffordshire families at the dawn of the Stuart era. As a meticulous english heraldry reference and genealogical sourcebook Staffordshire scholars still consult, this heraldic visitations collection anchors serious Staffordshire genealogy research in contemporary sworn testimony rather than later guesswork. Edited by H. Sydney Grazebrook with scholarly notes and cross-references, it stands as a natural Burkes Peerage companion and an indispensable family historians reference book for anyone tracing gentry lines, manorial descent or the local history of parishes across the county, and for readers fascinated by Stuart period England genealogy more broadly. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure. This Staffordshire heraldry collection is republished in a form that respects its original character while inviting fresh reading, making it equally attractive to casual readers of county history and to collectors building a lasting library of classic genealogy and heraldic sources.
