Surname Heraldry


 

I am getting ready to order some heraldry pages from the University of 
Tennesse. Seems that they charge a flat rate for fotocopy services but 
that rate is if they copy one page or 500. So if you all have any pages 
you want copied give me your list of surnames [NOTE: Send them in Numeric
order like my list below; volume first page second], volumes and page numbers. 

Here is the webpage where you can gain access to a search engine and get 
that info from the Spanish Heraldry Dictionary:

[long link that might need to be rebuilt]

Also look at the list of libraries that own the 88 volume set because 
maybe you'd rather just look up the copies for yourself if you have one 
of the libraries close to you.

here is the list of my requests. If you want to get any you'll have do 
your own look ups and give me a similarly formatted list:

from the above website:

"The resultant list is a finding aid consisting of the names, volume 
number of the Enciclopedia, and page number of more than 15,000 
genealogical and coats of arms compiled by the García-Carraffa brothers. 
Continued by the work of Endika de Mogrobejo  (whose contribution is 
indicated in this index by volume numbers which are preceded by the 
letter 'E'), the work of García Carraffa is a huge single published 
effort on Hispanic genealogy. Fortunately, it is available in a variety 
of libraries in the United States besides the Library of Congress. The 
following locations in the United States report holding this title:
Location
Boston Public Library
California State Library
Getty Center Library
Harvard University
The Hispanic Society of America
New York Public Library
Princeton University
University of Illinois
University of Pennsylvania
University of Tennessee
University of California, Berkeley
University of California, Berkeley, Bancroft Library
University of California at Santa Barbara
University of Michigan
University of Nevada (Reno)
State University of New York at Buffalo
The Library of Congress Call Number (CR2142.G3) will allow the work to 
be paged for use within the Library. It is not available for 
Interlibrary Loan. Note also that the condition of some volumes may 
prohibit their photoreproduction. Further information concerning the 
reproduction of articles from this title may be answered by writing 
directly to the Photoduplication Service of the Library of Congress, 
Washington DC 20540. Additional reference work should be continued in 
consultation with the specialists in the Local History & Genealogy 
Reading Room, or in the Hispanic Reading Room. We are unaware of any 
major translation of this Spanish-language compilation. Translation and 
genealogical research is not available through the offices of the 
Library of Congress."
