These arms, originating before crests were introduced in heraldry, were modified, like his name, by Etienne de Lancey, on becoming a British subject, to make them more like English arms, most of which have crests...They are thus blazoned : — Arms: azure, a tilting lance proper, point upward, with a pennon argent bearing a cross gules, fringed, or, floating to the right, debruised of a fesse, or. Crest : a sinister arm in armor embowed, the hand grasping a tilting lance, pennon attached, both proper. Motto : Certum voto pete finem. Though they are given, as so modified, in English armories, the change was never officially registered in the English "College of Arms."
