    Thanks!

    Yes the motto seen on the commercially available Stewart cap badges is virescit vulnere virtus said to mean "courage grows strong at a wound" for which the Pelican in Her Piety is perfectly fitting.

    Does that book show crests of various Stewart branches? If so, do they show the Pelican in Her Piety, or a Pelican feeding her young unwounded?
