Breathing Life Into Family Ancestors
Realizing that crests are really assigned to a specific individual and not a family, I have still chosen to show the crests that are associated with the O’Malleys and Ritschharts. The O’Malley crest is a prominent fixture in any of the Irish Heraldry shops and I personally observed in inside the Catholic Abbey on Clare Island just off the coast of Westport in County Mayo. The Abbey dates back to the mid-15th century. The inscription at the bottom of the O’Malley crest translates to “Valiant by Sea and Land”. I observed the Ritschhart crest on a large wooden mural in the Church in Hilterfingen, Switzerland. The Ritschhart name and crest appears 8 times on the mural, donated in 1731 by 32 prominent families in the area.
Richhart, Ritchhart, Ritschard
Christian Ritschart (1709-1790) was born in Bern, Switzerland to Christian Ritschard. In 1733 he married Magdalena Wolff and they were the parents of five children. In 1750 the family immigrated to America and settled in the Shenendoah Valley in Virginia. Descendants later moved to Ohio, Missouri and Canada.
