In c. 1927 my grandfather obtained from the College of Arms a magnificent set of 64 quarterings of his arms, taken from the records of the College. Central to this arrangement is the quarter of the Kingmaker at No 18 and from whom the remaining 46 quarters are all derived. The purpose of this page is to find what policies they adopted and from these to derive an updated set of quarters for the Kingmaker. The documents received from the College are:

College of Arms Documents for RCL Powys-Lybbe's Quarterings
The Quarterings of Arms 0.3 MBytes	The pedigree of all the armigers 9 MBytes	The references to the records in the College 2 MBytes

To download the readable file of each of these, click on each of the three images. Note that the second of these is a very large file for an A2 size drawn image; you will probably need to double the size of the image on your screen to read it, it will enlarge well.

Derive the various modern rules

1. Obtain the armiger's pedigree and traverse from the person whose quarterings are being studied.
2. What is a quartering?
3. Do not include arms where the pedigree was wrong about the family.
