Carrick Pursuivant
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Carrick Pursuivant of Arms in Ordinary is a current Scottish pursuivant of arms in ordinary. The title is derived from the Earl of Carrick, one of the titles borne by Robert the Bruce before his succession to the crown. Carrick is situated in the southwest of Scotland, and the first mention of the office is in 1364.
The badge of office is blazoned as A Chevron Gules enfiling a Coronet of four Fleur-de-lis and four Crosses paty proper.
The current Carrick Pursuivant is Elizabeth Ann Roads, MVO, who is also Lyon Clerk and Keeper of the Records, managing the Public Register of All Arms and Bearings in Scotland.
