Hello, and welcome to the American Heraldry Society.  The American Heraldry Society is an organization dedicated to the furthering of heraldry, and heraldic study in the United States.  Specifically, its goals are three-fold:

  1. Provide for the education of the American people regarding the proper use and history of heraldry
     

  2. Maintain a free and voluntary registry of all personal, corporate, societal and governmental heraldic insignias used within the United States
     

  3. Lobby the governments of the various states to establish governmental regulatory bodies within each respective state for the purpose of maintaining official registries and establishing policies for heraldry for that locality

The American Heraldry Society is comprised of various chapter organizations in each state of the United States, and each state organization shall act relatively independently of the others, within the guidelines set by a national governing body.  Though founded recently, in early November of 2003, the organization already has a membership which reaches from Virginia to Colorado, as well as a member in the United Kingdom.
