End of the House of Alabona-Ostrogojsk? 
  Longtime readers of rec.heraldry might remember postings about Prince William I of Alabona Ostrogjsk, his Order of the Noble Companions of the Swan, and his various other orders.

Order of the Eagle of Georgia 
  Hello all, can someone please update me on the status of this Order? Are they seen as an authentic Order of Chivalry, semi or self-styled? Also, I would like to know what is SMOM's view upon them? Are they on SMOM's proscribed list of Order? Thank you

I've always assumed that all of my ancestors were farmers and peasants, but I stumbled upon a website that may suggest that Johan was major and married a woman named Charlotta von Becker (who looks to have been the daughter of a baron/major general): [link]... more »

Armorial Tombs in Malta 
  Hi all, I've been exploring the website of St John’s Co-Cathedral in Valletta, Malta, which was built as the conventual church for the SMOM ([link]).

Royal Scots Arms 
  I have a question: What happens with the achievements of the men, and women, at least in one case, of those who ascend to the throne? Secondly; did William the Lion have arms before his ascention?
