Talk:Earl of Pembroke
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This article incorporates text from the Encyclopædia Britannica Eleventh Edition, now in the public domain. |
Some of the pages appear to be muddled up. The link "William Herbert, 1st Earl of Pembroke (1423-1469)" goes to the same page as the "William Herbert, 1st Earl of Pembroke (1506-1570)" link. Not sure how that gets fixed. Is there a page for the 1st William (1423-1468)?
What is the blazon of the tenth creation?
- As the picture is black and white it's somewhat tricky but it looks like: per pale azure and gules three lions rampant Or armed and langued counterchanged azure and gules.
- The supporters appear to be a lion rampant gardant or and a leopard spotted sable and azure.(?) They are both gorged with a duke's coronet which is coloured (counterchanged again probably) The crest on a wreath of (argent and azure ?) a wyvern rampant proper (?)

[edit] Biographies
Since all the biographical information on the major figures here have their own entries, what is the point of listing them all again? I understand that this is a Brittanica article, but if nobody objects I'll chop it down a bit, putting the useful bits in the appropriate places and making this page a bit slimmer.

- I think the most infos dates from the time, when several earls have'nt had their own articles - so this article here was only a assembly point. Mainly the text should reflect the history of the title, the origin of the creations and naturally short notices of the more important holders - said briefly: yes, in my opinion, a little bit tidying would be sensible.
