Interesting. While Scottish coats of arms belong to individuals, I know the Irish system is more permissive of multiple descendants using the same arms.
I usually see the O’Neill arms depicted with three estoils (wavy 5 pointed stars), the red right hand, two lions rampant, and a salmon in the water.
Can you share an image of the three brass balls one?
