Arms of Ronald John WillockBlazonArgent on a bend Purpure between two kittiwakes proper three wheels, all within a bordure indented Or; SymbolismThe Canadian Heraldic Authority does not have confirmed symbolism for this emblem. The following comments are hypotheses only. The wheels could allude to the profession of Mr. Willock’s great-grandfather, who was a carter. The kittiwakes, a type of seabird, may refer to the coastal town in Scotland, Irvine, where Mr. Willock’s family is from. The border is a Scottish method of differencing. |
