Some of the first settlers of this family name or some of its variants were: Jane Drady, who settled in Massachusetts in 1733; Patrick Draddy, who was recorded in New York in 1812 as a British alien during the War of 1812; Anastasia Drady, who settled in Nova Scotia in 1820. The motto was originally a war cry or slogan. Mottoes first began to be shown with arms in the 14th and 15th centuries, but were not in general use until the 17th century. Thus the oldest coats of arms generally do not include a motto. Mottoes seldom form part of the grant of arms: Under most heraldic authorities, a motto is an optional component of the coat of arms, and can be added to or changed at will; many families have chosen not to display a motto. Motto: Vulneratus non victus Motto Translation: Wounded not vanquished.
The Drady Family Crest was acquired from the Houseofnames.com archives. The Drady Family Crest was drawn according to heraldic standards based on published blazons. We generally include the oldest published family crest once associated with each surname. This page was last modified on 4 April 2012 at 04:31. ©2000-2012 Swyrich Corporation.
