Good evening in this occasion, as per Mr. Guillermo Augusto Reyes Páes request, we are posting the family crest of the last name Reyes.

reyesThe first mention of this last name is from the Bishop of Orense in his book “Book of Lineages”, from the II century. Mentioning it comes from a nobleman, of an illustrious Roman family, father of Santa Clara Regina. Others attach this last name to Gonzalo de Reyes as the first person with this last name, (crowning Gundamero, year 611). Master of the house of Bocirios in the road to Chantada, father of García de Reyes who founded ancestral house in the hill “Altamira”, near Noya (Coruña). Nuño de Reyes, one of the twelve knights of royal blood chosen to form a brotherhood that later became Santiago’s Military Order, was one of the most notorious of this house. Its Arms: In gold a stone castle, a star of azure, silver bordure and eight sable ermines.
