I do have a question though, at what date were Heralds set up in a Royal position in England? 1225 ? link and from…(although he mentions 1250 for a mention of king of heralds) link A. Origins – from minstrel to nobility •Heralds first thought to be associated with tourneys, often worked freelance, and were considered the same rank as minstrels. •The herald is a messenger and a maker of proclamations. He knew how to distinguish men in war and tourney, which evolved into a specialty. As arms became more common and entered political protocol, the heralds job became more important. •13th c, big households had their own heralds •1250 – English documents mention a "King of Heralds" in royal service •1290 – Andrew is given the title "North King" – heralds are no longer ranked with entertainers. By 1300's, herald are part of the courtly establishment. •When COH in England forms in 1484, heralds given privileges, including tax exemption – heralds are full time government employees. •Visitations begin in England in 1530 |
