Description of Dilley Family Coat of Arms that Bob Dilley has:

The crest as you look at it has a knights helmet with the visor closed, pointing to the left. It is surrounded by some line drawings in a nice scrolling pattern. Directly underneath the Knights head is a banner in which the name Dilley is imprinted. Beneath that is what appears to be a shield, flat across the top, and coming down to a point at the bottom. Inside the shield is three bird heads. I cannot determine for sure whether they are supposed to be falcon or eagle heads. One is top left in the shield, one is placed top right in the shield and one is placed at the bottom center of the shield, directly underneath the peak of what I would call a chevron. It is a wide stripe that starts in the curve of the shield on each side near the bottom and goes up and in towards the center of the shield where it meets in the middle. The sides of the shield are surrounded by that same scrolling pattern which stops before it reaches the bottom point of the shield creating an open area. In addition the certificate that accompanies the crest reads "Certificate of Authenticity. This is to certify that the Coat of Arms described hereon has been used in centuries past by a person or family with the Surname DILLEY or an onomatological variant there of and is therefore judged to be associated with this name. Arms Description:
"Gules a chevron argent between three hawks' heads erased or."
