Arms of Bartholomew de Brianson from the Dering Roll (c. 1270-1300)

Blazon: Gyronny of eight argent and azure

I do have a few records of Bartholomew de Brianson: he was summoned in 1276 to pay a debt to Edward I, which was later acquitted. There’s another from 1346, when presumably he was already deceased - the monks of Monk Bretton Priory had an endowment to pray for his soul. It seems like he was the son of John de Brianson and his wife Elizabeth, but I can’t find any evidence that Bartholomew married or had further descendents. (Pity, because I’m a sucker for gyronny; more people should have that!)
