Here is the standard reference for coats of arms of officials, civil servants, professional men, and other French Canadians. Arranged by type of office held or service performed, the entries in each section are accompanied by an illustration of a coat of arms, a description of the arms, a genealogical notice of the bearer, and references to the sources of information. The genealogical notices offer such information as family relationships, origin of family, dates of birth and death, places of residence in France and Canada, dates of arrival, and position and dates of service in Quebec. Each volume is separately indexed.
