The Belcher Family Crest
The emigrant, Andrew Belcher, settled in the Massachusetts Colony in 1639. We find the coat of arms of his son, Andrew Belcher, commissary general of the province, on the Gore Roll of Arms (1717). The grandson of the emigrant, Jonathan Belcher, was governor of Nova Scotia, and used the same shield on his seal (1760). The family came from the Belchers of Kingswood, county Wilts, England.
