Arms of the Coles
The following is an excerpt from "The Descendants Of James Cole
Of Plymouth, 1633" byErnest Byron Cole (The Grafton Press, 1908):
The Coles of ENgland were granted some thirty Coats of Arms or
Crests. While they differed greatly in their make-up, they all bore the
same motto, namely:
Deum Cole, Regnum Serva
("Honor God, Serve the King")
The arms reproduced here shows a bull passant. The bull is a bearing
emblematic of valor and magnanimity.
