The shield is composed of a black background (\u003ci data-path-to-node=\"2\" data-index-in-node=\"189\"\u003eSable\u003c\/i\u003e) symbolizing constancy and stability, which stands in contrast to the gold elements (\u003ci data-path-to-node=\"2\" data-index-in-node=\"280\"\u003eOr\u003c\/i\u003e) that denote generosity and elevation of mind. Positioned prominently between three gold griffins' heads is a gold chevron, an architectural symbol mimicking the rafters of a roof that traditionally signifies protection or the completion of a notable enterprise. The griffins' heads are described as \"erased,\" meaning they are detached with a distinct jagged edge, a classical device representing fierce bravery and watchful vigilance. Adorning the chevron are three red \u003ci data-path-to-node=\"2\" data-index-in-node=\"754\"\u003eestoiles\u003c\/i\u003e—six-pointed stars with wavy rays—symbols of divine guidance and honor. This exact configuration was officially confirmed in February 1612 by William Camden, the Clarenceux King of Arms, to John Cory of London, a gentleman merchant whose ancestral roots traced directly back to the established Cory lineage of Bramerton Hall in Norfolk.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-path-to-node=\"3\"\u003eOrigin of the surname Curry\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"4\"\u003eIn the context of this specific armorial lineage, the surname Curry operates as an interchangeable historic spelling variant of the ancient English name Cory (also recorded as Corie, Currey, or Corry). The name is primarily locational and topographical in origin, tracing back to early English and Anglo-Norse roots. In medieval England, the surname developed either from specific geographic localities—such as the ancient lands of Cory in the West Country—or from the Old Norse personal name \u003ci data-path-to-node=\"4\" data-index-in-node=\"493\"\u003eKori\u003c\/i\u003e, which spread across the British Isles during the periods of Scandinavian settlement. As families migrated toward prominent trading hubs like London and East Anglia, spelling variations naturally proliferated across centuries of parish registries and legal documents. ⚜️\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Family Crests Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54579207274841,"sku":"1914954_4830","price":21.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0820\/2669\/2953\/files\/white-glossy-mug-white-15-oz-handle-on-right-68200366e9472.jpg?v=1746928497","url":"https:\/\/familycrests.store\/products\/curry-family-crest-mug-english-origin","provider":"Family Crests Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
