Walsingham Wanderings

About the Author

Dr. Chad M. Krouse: Richmond, Virginia, United States; My research focuses on Pierre de Chaignon la Rose (1872-1941) and the work he did to revive heraldry in the US during the early 20th Century. I like to share some of my findings here in anticipation of a forthcoming book on the herald. I am a member of the Order of St. John (US Priory) and currently serving on the Board of Governors of the American Heraldry Society. I hold memberships with the College of Arms Foundation (US), The Royal Heraldry Society of Canada, The Heraldry Society (UK), and an associate membership with the NEHGS Committee on Heraldry (US).
