The crest features a black lion rampant rising from a golden ducal coronet and holding a sword. In traditional heraldic terms, a silver field denotes peace and sincerity, while the chevron signifies protection or structural defense. The leopard's face is a standard symbol indicating courage and vigilance. The accompanying Latin motto, Fide et fortitudine, translates to \"By fidelity and fortitude.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"4\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eWhile the core design of a chevron between three leopards' faces originates with medieval English and Anglo-Norman branches of the Lee family, this specific variation was officially established as an Irish armorial grant. It was issued by Sir William Betham, the Ulster King of Arms, to Rear-Admiral Richard Lee, the son of John Lee of Londonderry, Ireland. The original documentation and pedigree registers for this registration are maintained within the Ulster Office records, which are permanently preserved at the National Library of Ireland in Dublin. The lineage and its corresponding armorial bearings are also formally documented in Sir Bernard Burke's \u003ci data-path-to-node=\"2\" data-index-in-node=\"661\"\u003eThe General Armory of England, Scotland, Ireland, and Wales\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-path-to-node=\"5\"\u003eNotable Historical Figures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"6\"\u003eThis specific armorial lineage is directly tied to John Lee of Londonderry and his son, Rear-Admiral Richard Lee, who served in the Royal Navy during the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries and was the recipient of the Ulster grant. The records of their family lineage remain part of the historical genealogical collections of Ireland. This version represents the documented historical record for individuals tracing their ancestry to the Lee families of Ulster and Londonderry, or those whose lineage aligns with the official registrations of the Ulster Office of Arms.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(6, 102, 102);\"\u003eAbout the artist\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach coat of arms in the Family Crests Store is an artwork by heraldic artist Éamonn Breathnach.
