Families covered: Bunny of Hurstbourne, Bunny of Ibdrope, Bunny of Newbury
| (1) An abbreviated version of the following, based on BLG1952, was first uploaded to a Temporary page on 24.10.11. It was moved here following review & expansion using Elwes & Robinson and Berry. (2) Elwes & Robinson identify the family's arms as "Arg., three goats' heads, erased sab.". Berry identifies them as "Argent a Chevron between three Goats Heads, erased Sable". Elwes & Robinson notes that: "This family owned Ibdrope, in the parish of Hurstbourne Tarrant, co. Hants, at a very early period; a deed, temp. K. John, proves this." and "From the similarity of the Christian names between these Bunnys and those of Yorkshire and Nottingham (see Bunny1), they are no doubt of one and the same origin, particularly as they bear precisely the same arms." |
