The arms of the Revells: Ermine a chevron gules within a bordure engrailed sable, and sometimes a chevron gules charged with three mullets or, both of which coats are to be seen in Dugdale's 'Warwickshire,' as taken from the monuments in Newbold church, have been used by all the various branches of the family. The ancient crest, a cubit arm with gauntlet of knight grasping a lion's paw, and the motto "In perpetuam rei memoriam" were later changed by the Ogston Hall family for 'an arm in armour garnished or, holding in the hand a dagger the point downwards, between two bats' wings or, membraned gules, while the chevron on the shield was charged with three trefoils ermine in place of stars. Coat and crest confirmed by Wm. Flower, Norry King-at-Arms, 10th July, 1546, to Robert Revell. These arms were again granted to a Robert Revell, Sheriff of County Derby in 1700, with slight change in the border. Source: An Historical Narrative of the Ely, Revell and Stacye Families
