Coat of Arms

Section 11: The fourth and final part of the great-great-great-grandparents in the lower level of the figure gives the full coats of arms for Wartislaw IX from left to right. Duke of Pomerania-Wolgast (ca 1400-17.4.1457) and Sophie of Saxony-Lauenburg-Ratzeburg (-1462), followed by Bogislaw IX. Duke of Pomerania-Stargard (-7.12.1446, here 1466) and Maria of Mazovia (here -1450). The coat of arms for Mazovia, which is to be expected here, is missing from Dragon and Eagle.

In the next level above, we see the fourth group of eight great-great-great-grandparents, now the last eight maternal, Barnim VI. Duke of Pommern-Wolgast (-22.9.1405) and his unspecified wife named Veronika von Hohenzollern, then Erich IV Duke of Saxony-Lauenburg (1354-21.6.1411) and Sophie of Brunswick, followed by Bogislaw VIII Duke by Pomeranian Stargard and Sophia von Holstein, most recently Duke Ziemowit IV of Mazovia and Alexandra of Lithuania.

So far we have not seen any coats of arms in this series two, on the one hand the Holstein coat of arms, in red a silver nettle leaf, on the crowned helmet with red-silver covers six flags with the shield image, whereby here however the tinctures were exchanged, on the other hand the Lithuanian rider or pursuer, the Vitys, silvery in the red field
