The Trenite blazon - reportedly since 1695 - consists of a dove in
flight, descending from the right over five mountains (under him)
with a golden crown in his beak.
The dove and the mountains are silver.
The Nolst blazon - reportedly since 1576 - consists of three golden
beakers: Two beakers side by side at the top, and the third one
centered below these.
The beakers are round cups, standing on a stem with a thick foot,
the foot about half the width of the cup above it. They have lids
in the shape of an upside-down cup (fitting, of the same size, and)
with a small knob handle at the top of the lid.
This makes each beaker then look like a golden ball held up by
a stem.
In 1825, the Dutch 'Nolst' and French 'Trenite' blazons combined,
and the 'Trenite' blazon is dominant (in the first quadrant).
The shield (the background) of both the Trenite and the Nolst
blazon, is blue.
The last 'e' of Trenite, in non-English (in the original)
notation, carries a sharp accent - as is normal in French.
It translates into English as "Trinity."
In French (the original) Trenite is pronounced as
'Trenitay.'
The French Trenite, is a Huguenot (Reformed Christian)
name altered after the French Trinite - a Catholic
Christian family name, which still exists, for instance
in Trinite-Valrose (as a French wine by that name).
On the 18th of October 1685, the 'Edict of Nantes'
was revoked by the French King Louis XIV.
'Louis Quatorze,' the "Roi Soleil" - the "Sun
King" as he wanted to be seen. But:
He thereby removed the physical protection
against Catholic Christians, that the
Huguenots (the non-Catholic French Christians)
had officially enjoyed since the 13th of
April 1598, by a formal proclamation known as
'The Edict (proclamation, made in the French
town) of Nantes.'
Therefore many Huguenots settled abroad.
The Trenite family moved to Holland, and there, more than
a century later - reportedly in 1825 - the two families
Trenite and Nolst joined in matrimony, as reflected since
that time in the Nolst Trenite coat of arms.
The crest sign of the coat of arms, is the silver dove standing with
the golden crown in his beak.
