WELL, You are correct. This is my line of Alexander. That is why I gave my web site. If your line descends from the Alexander family of Virginia for whom Alexandria of Virginia was named after, then this is your coat of arms.

The pertain only to the Clan member they are designed for. Therefore each member could have a very different shield.....or they could be the same. Generally the symbology on the shield would represent something important to that person or clan.

You will see the Alexander note card there. She also does suitable for framing photos of this coat. They look amazing on fine linen paper - much better than the scanned image.
