Information given by 5 John Latta of Portland, Ore.
October 4, 1918, while visiting Denver, Colo.
He says that the Coat of Arms and crest, used by his
family, in Scotland, is a Bay tree, and no shield, with
the motto "Dum Vivo Vireo."
This, except the motto, differs from that of the
Crusader. See my Scrap Book.
