Thanks Todd,

Ron,

The more important information is my post before the article, though. :mrgreen:

The Double headed eagle represents the Old Roman Empire after St. Constantine.

You should not have trouble finding a good one. Check also some German heraldry sites.

In this case, Father, the eagle in question is featured on the arms of the Chief of the MacDonalds. It is not a double-headed one, a la the Russian eagle.
