Ibarra Family Crest
Posted on 23. Jun, 2008 by El Heraldo in Family Crests, coat of Arms
NOTE: The last name Ybarra can also be spelled with an “I”. In its beginnings Ibarra was spelled this way and eventually evolved to Ybarra. Some people around the world still use the old form (Ibarra). It would be interesting to the Ybarras and Ibarras out there to tell us more about their last names and why the use either form of the last name. Here is the information we got about Ybarra.
There are many solares in Biscay, Guipúzcoa, Alava and Navarrese with reference to this lineage that one cannot point out the cradle of this last name. Don Carlos de Ybarra Barreri, admiral of the sea Oceano, was created Marquis of Taracena on August 17th, 1638. Don Juan Antonio de Ibarra y Ubilla, knight of Santiago, was created Viscount of Santo Domingo de Ybarra on September 11th, 1690. Don Fernando de Ybarra y de la Revilla was created Marquis of Arriluce de Ybarra on May 23rd, 1918.
Its Arms: In silver field a sinople olive tree with its open branches and in the center a flat cross of gules with sinople thorns above it.

Ricardo,
My father has been researching and collecting family crests and genealogy data since he was 16 years old. So we do have a bog database of information on Spanish family crests. FYI, we just acquired a big collection of French family crests dating all the way back to the 1800s very impressive. Thank you for your comment. And tell your friends. Continue the tradition.

how do you know which crest to use? There is another website that shows a different crest with a tree in the middle of what looks like a shield and a dog or horse on either side of it with red x’s all around.

I’ve also seen an alternate coat of arms where there are two wolves positioned symmetrically on the outside of tree…makes me wary to know why there are two?

Gloria,
Many last names have different family crests. We post the first one we find. Our process is to search the BLAZON which is the information that details the elements of a family crest so when we get a request, we research the sources we usually do until we find a blazon for a specific family crest. Then my father designs it.
