Barnes Coat of Arms:
|
A coat of arms for the "Barnes" Family - but this doesn't mean
that it is the coat of arms for our branch of the Barnes Family. As my ancestors were
farm labourers not able to write or even spell their own names I doubt
if they would have had such an elaborate coat of arms!

| The
information about Barnes being the family name of the Barons Gorell is
mentioned in the Penguin Dictionary of Surnames. The title Baron Gorell
was created in the peerage of the United Kingdom in 1909. A Major Henry
Gorell Barnes D.S.O. of the Royal Field Artillery was killed on the 16th
January 1917 - he was 35 years old. He is buried in LIJSSENTHOEK
MILITARY CEMETERY, Belgium. He was the 2nd Baron Gorell. |

| Another variation, this one seems to have lost the leopard(?) at the
top but gained lions rampant on both sides of the shield. Makes for a
nice drinks coaster though. |
