How to use this page

First, check this page to make sure it hasn't already been reported.

Then, check the Errata Page in Progress listing to see if it isn't already scheduled for an errata letter. Note that Errata Page in Progress should not be edited by anyone but the Errata Clerk.

Third, check the recent LoARs? for errata letters to make sure it hasn't already been dealt with.

Then, add items to this page to report them. Try to keep things in chronological order, with most recent mistakes first.

Prospective Errata

August 2007

Caid

The name Þorfinnr brimill was registered in May 2007 and again in August 2007 (both via Caid). The August one should have been a return - the Caid April LoI? had a correction (admittedly in Sept - and I'm not sure how that happened) noting that the name had been registered in May.

May 2006

Cover Letter

      Currently, precedent holds that a name where the individual elements are documented more than 300 years apart 
      is a step from period practice. In March 2003, Laurel ruled:

                   in a number of my recent rulings, I've ruled that excessive temporal mismatching can be considered a 
                   "weirdness", costing the submitter the benefit of the doubt. With this LoAR, I hereby make the new policy 
                   official: If the elements of a submitted name are dated too far apart,  then any other anomaly in the name 
                   may combine to force it to be returned.. . .

The quoted ruling is actually from the March, 1993 LoAR.

Errata letter

 January 1985 *****
 West ****

  Brighid Ni Re{a'}ne. Name correction from Brighid ni Roane.

      Listed on the LoAR as a device reblazon for Brighid ni Roane,
      her name was registered as Brighid Ni Re{a'}ne on the 10/1980
      LoAR.

 May 1985 *****
  West ****
  Sariya al Mus'ad. Name change correction from Brighid ni Roane.
      Listed on the LoAR as a name change from Brighid ni Roane, this
      name was registered as Brighid Ni Re{a'}ne on the 10/1980 LoAR.
      The name Brighid Ni Re{a'}ne is hereby released.

...however, examination of the hard-copy of the October 1980 LoAR suggests that the name was Roane. The o is filled in (mimeograph printing), but it can be distinguished from a similarly filled in e by the small indentation in the e. If that should have been an e, then the 10/1980 LoAR needs correction. The online version of the LoAR shows Re{a'}ne, but that does not agree with the hardcopy.

November 2004

Middle

JML: this is a combined database and LoAR error. The O&A has:

Rinaldo of Blackhaven This name was registered in January of 1987 (via the Middle).
The following device associated with this name was registered in November of 2004 (via the Middle):
Or, a pegasus salient sable sustaining and ridden by a man in armor vert maintaining a sword sable..
for Household of the Dark Winds
The following device associated with this name was registered in January of 1987 (via the Middle):
Gyronny azure and argent, a bat displayed maintaining a fasces gules, wearing a barrel helm sable.
The following device associated with this name was registered in February of 1987 (via the Middle) and reblazoned in November of 2004 (via the Middle):
Or, a pegasus salient sable ridden by a man in armour guardant vert, maintaining a sword sable.

The Feb. 1987 LoAR registers the pegasus as a badge for the Household of the Dark Winds. So, that's the datebase error (calling it a device). The Nov. 2004 LoAR reblazons the armory calling it a device and not mentioning the association with the household. There's also an extra period at the end of the reblazon. That's the LoAR errors. I'm not reporting the database errors on the other badge because fixing that without fixing this will cause even more confusion.

August 2004

Lochac

Rodri Ysoglaig. Name.

<Ysoglaig> is a typo; it should be <Ysgolaig> per http://www.panix.com/~gabriel/public-bin/showfinal.cgi?2799+0.

July 2004

Atenveldt


The OandA? has:

  1. Ælfwin Ironhair
    * This name was registered in July of 2004 (via Atenveldt).

and

  1. Guilla Ironhare
    * This name was registered in February of 2004 (via Atenveldt).
    * The following device associated with this name was registered in February of 2004 (via Atenveldt):
      Per pale Or and vert, in pale a single-horned anvil and a hare salient sable.

The first entry is a name change of the second, according to the LoAR:

"Ælfwin Ironhair. Name. ... Her old name, Guilla Ironhare is released."

It wasn't listed as a name change in the header, which is probably where the error got into the DB.

Herveus: This is a genuine erratum. The LoAR needs to be corrected. I can add a note, but that's all.

May 2004

  1. Melisenda Alix de la Croix

    * This name was registered in May of 2004 (via Trimaris).

  1. Melissent Alix de la Croix

    * This name was registered in June of 2003 (via Trimaris).

January 2001

Outlands

  1. Francesca di Pavia

    * The following device associated with this name was registered in November of 1989 (via the Outlands):
      Argent, on a pile bendwise sinister issuant from base between two crescents azure, an owl statant to sinister argent.
    * The following augmentation associated with this name was registered in January of 2001 (via the Outlands):
      Argent, on a pile bendwise sinister throughout issuant from base between two crescents azure, an owl statant to sinister argent, as an augmentation on a chief azure, two keys fesswise reversed in fess argent.

The base blazon of the augmentation should match the registered armory. Either the blazon for the augmented arms should be changed or the base device (reg. 1989) should be reblazoned.

June 1999

East

  1. East, Kingdom of
    * This appeared in June of 1999 (via the East).
      It appears to have been a mis-spelling of East, Kingdom of the.

March 1999

Trimaris

  1. Bretislava Jerábek
    * The following device associated with this name was registered in November of 1999 (via Trimaris):

October 1998

Caid

  1. Deorwulf se Deorc
    * The following device associated with this name was registered in July of 1982 (via Caid) and corrected blazon in October of 1998 (via Caid):

      Full form: D{e-}orwulf s{e-} Deorc
    * This appeared in October of 1998 (via Caid).
      It appears to have been a mis-spelling of Deorwulf se Deorc.
      Full form: D{e-}orwulf s{e-} Deorc 

April 1998

Middle

  1. Catherine Margaret Oakley of Rivendale. Per pale vert and sable, a Catherine's wheel and an oak leaf argent.

    * This name was registered in June of 1996 (via the Middle).
    * The following device associated with this name was registered in February of 1998 (via the Middle):
      Per pale vert and sable, a Catherine's wheel and an oak leaf, a chief triangular argent.
    * The following device associated with this name was registered in April of 1998 (via the Middle):
      Per pall argent, sable, and vert, a Catherine's wheel and an oak leaf argent.
      ? intended to be a device change

JML: Not a device change, possibly a reblazon (but if so it's not accurate). The April 1998 LoAR states "This was registered on the February 1998 LoAR." It really is a chief triangular, not a per pall field division. Double check with Shauna to make sure there wasn't another submission; I only have the Feb. 1998 emblazon. Ary - If there wasn't another submission form, can you handle this in an Errata letter or do you need me to handle it on the LoAR?

January 1998

AEthelmearc


  1. AEthelmearc, Kingdom of
    * This appeared in January of 1998 (via AEthelmearc).
      It appears to have been a mis-spelling of Æthelmearc, Kingdom of.

This error was corrected on the 08/2006 errata letter.

No, it wasn't. It was a different misspelling that was corrected there. The January 1998 LoAR was not mentioned on that errata letter.

January 1997

MIDDLE

  1. Svatý Sebesta, College of
    * The following device associated with this name was registered in January of 1997 (via the Middle):
      Gules, an open book surmounted by an arrow inverted, all within a laurel wreath argent.
      Full form: Svat{y'} {Sv}ebesta, College of

  1. Lijsbeth Tijsz van Brugge

    *The following device associated with this name was registered in January of 1997 (via Meridies):
    Per pale purpure and vert a winged lion segreant to sinister maintaining a sun in splendor Or.

Lijsbeth seems to be missing a comma after 'and vert'.

July 1996

Calontir

Shane O'Brollaghan. Name & Device. Per bend sinister purpure and vert, a seven-headed hydra statant contourny within a double tressure Or.

This is a duplicate registration of Shane O Brollaghan, name and device, "Per bend sinister purpure and vert, a seven-headed wingless hydra statant contourny within a double tressure Or," reg. 01/1996 via Calontir.

May 1996

February 1994

Ansteorra

The O&A has:
  1. Kathrine de Laine

    * This name was registered in September of 1992 (via Ansteorra).
    * The following device associated with this name was registered in February of 1994 (via Ansteorra):
      Vert, a furison and a bordure urdy argent.
    * The following badge associated with this name was registered in September of 1992 (via Ansteorra):
      Vert, a furison within a bordure urdy argent.

The Feb. 1994 LoAR notes "This is the submitter's currently registered badge. Submitted as Katherine de Laine, the above form was registered in the September 1992 LoAR and appears on her original name submissions forms." It appears that this should have been a change from badge to device and she should only have a single piece of armory registered. Please verify with Shauna - it's not on the CDs. Make the 1994 blazon match the one registered in 1992. -- JML

June 1994

Drachenwald

As you noted, November 1988, p. 13. Hmm, I see I forgot the page numbers on most of these. Sorry. If you need them, I'll go look them up again.

That's #1. Yes, an intrusive space.

August 1987

Laurel

  1. Debateable Lands, Barony-Marche of the
    * This appeared in August of 1987 (via Laurel).
      It appears to have been a mis-spelling of Debatable Lands, Barony-Marche of the.

This does not occur at http://www.sca.org/heraldry/loar/1987/08/lar.html. I'm looking for more info.

September 1986

Atenveldt

Aengus mac Coil. Name correction (from Aengus MacCoil?). (from http://www.sca.org/heraldry/loar/1986/09/lar.html). The OandA? has # Aengus MacColl?: * This name, registered in July of 1986 (via Atenveldt), was corrected to Aengus mac Coll in September of 1986 (via Atenveldt), so I think this is simply a transcription/OCR error for the electronic version.

March 1986

Caid

  1. Echegaray of Shadow Valley
    * This name was registered in June of 1976 (via Atenveldt) and released in March of 1986 (via Caid).
    * The following device associated with this name was registered in June of 1976 (via Atenveldt) and released in March of 1986 (via Caid):
      Arbent, a sun gules charged with a lion's head cabossed.
  1. Echegary of Shadow Valley
    * This appeared in March of 1986 (via Caid).
      It appears to have been a mis-spelling of Echegaray of Shadow Valley.

The 03/1986 electronic LoAR has:

Echegry of Shadow Valley. Release of name and device. Argent, a sun gules charged with lion's head cabossed Or. [March 1980). NOTE: These are a former name and device of the person now know as Aelfred Halvdan of Holdene (above).

May 1984

Siobhann ni Chathain MacMhuiraich? This appeared in May of 1984 (via An Tir). It appears to have been a mis-spelling of Siobhann ní Chathain MacMhuiraich?. Siobhann ní Chathain MacMhuiraich? This name was registered in May of 1984 (via An Tir). The following device associated with this name was registered in May of 1984 (via An Tir): Per pale azure and argent, three chevronels counterchanged, overall a rose gules, seeded Or, slipped and leaved vert. The following badge associated with this name was registered in May of 1984 (via An Tir): Per pale sable and argent, a phoenix counterchanged rising from flames emergent from base proper and in chief a crescent inverted counterchanged.

October 1983

East


The OandA? has:

  1. David Morgan of Clai Morgan
    * This appeared in October of 1983 (via the East).
      It appears to have been a mis-spelling of David Morgan of Claíomh Morgan.

According to the files, <David Morgan of Clai Morgan> is not a misspelling of <David Morgan of Claíomh Morgan>; it is a name change which was approved 10/1983, though this was not explicitly stated on the LoAR. Let me know on the errata page if you want me to make an errata entry for the name change.

This is still a pending erratum. The O&A accurately reflects what is in the LoAR. If it was meant as a name change on the fly, it needs to be made explicit.

June 1983

Ansteorra

  1. Eric Thorgrimsson. Per chevron sable and gules, a chevron, in base a peregrine falcon displayed Or, hooded sable, and a chief embattled Or.

This is so insanely light that I completely missed it when looking at the color copy in Ansteorra's files. In fact, ours just looks plain argent (marked sable). The scan in Laurel's files, if you zoom in and squint, shows what MIGHT be a very very light yellow, but even so, in comparison to the rest of the Or bits of the device, it looks argent to me. -- Emma

April 1981

Laurel

> Carolla Aulica OR > Corolla Aulica (associated with the Principality of the Mists)

I don't know what's on the original LOARs, but the principality consistently uses "Corolla". See also "Corolla Muralis", "Corolla Vitea", and "Corollae Nebularum", all registered in August 1987. Please let us know if a correction needs to be submitted.

March 1981

East

  1. Gwenneth ni Gallighir
    * The following device associated with this name was registered in July of 1981 (via the East):
      Sable, a fess dancetty, argent between in chief three apples, leaved, proper, and in base a grenade argent, flamed proper.

  1. Gwenth de Galigare
    * The following device associated with this name was registered in August of 1979 (via the East):
      Sable, a fess indented argent between in chief three red apples leaved and stemmed proper, and in base a bombshell argent. [Pyrus malus]

I wonder if these are the same people.

AmC?: Emailed Shauna. JML: yes, they are. Ary - check the CDs under Gwenneth ni Gallighir (or ask Shauna to)

West

July 1980 LoAR: Akbar Khyam. Pean, on a ball of flames Or a wolf's head erased sable. April 1986 LoAR (An Tir): Akbar Khyamm. Name correction (from Khyam). [July 1980] Note that the cross reference for AKBAR THE SOT also needs to be corrected. March 1981 LoAR (West): Akbar the Sot. Badge. Sable, a Bog Beast's head erased, argent.

August 1980

Ansteorra

  1. Denys de Boyier - should be Denys de Royier, as listed on the original forms in kingdom.

May 1980

Ansteorra

  1. Dierdre de Clarik - should be Deirdre de Clarik, as listed on the original forms in kingdom.

January 1976

  1. Silver Quill Pursuivant
    * This name was referenced in January of 1976 in a registration by Heralds' Seals: Silver Quill Pursuivant.
    * This heraldic title was registered to Atenveldt, Kingdom of in June of 1976.

Is this the same as

  1. Silverquill Pursuivant
    * This heraldic title was registered to West, Kingdom of the at some point and released in December of 1990 (via the West).

1979

Heraldicon: Manfred Gustsson (August 1979, East): Gules, a raven displayed fesswise sable, orbed gules, all fimbriated or. That blazon needs the tincture "or" capitalized.

In fact, it appears that large numbers of registrations on that letter spell the tincture 'or'. The first word of the blazon is generally correct. Elsewhere, it's a coin flip.

--

The Order of the Maunch is not spelled that way in Kingdom Law or in the O & A. It appears in the Heraldicon listings, however.

Page in the Kingdom binder has Maunch typewritten, but the artwork is labeled Manche in calligraphy. Name was not explicitly registered until 1987, but the badge was registered to the Order in 1979.

> The 1987 Armorial including the following: > > "Included herein is a list of awards and titles of both SCA and > mundane origin, generated both from Letters of Acceptances and > Returns from Laurel, and mundane encyclopedias and similar sources." > > I'm trying to find out how a certain Eastern order was listed > there. Is it: > > Manch, > Manche, > Maunch, or > Maunche? > > Or, none of the above?

In the order list:

Maunche, Order of the (OM) (p. A-3)

In the Armorial:

Order of the Maunch (p. 58) Maunch, Order of the (Reference, see East Kingdom, August 1979) (p. 122)

In the Ordinary:

Order of the Maunch (p. 454)

Yet more Heraldicon:

  Looking at the original submission form, this should be "ap", not "op"
