Coat of arms in my dp. Its my mothers, so its from my polish side.
It is called Sas. Apparently its origins are from Moldavia where the prince there (prince sas) and a retinue of his knights were invited into Galicia-Volhynia (modern day western ukraine) to fight for the Polish King at the time. The coat of arms belongs to him and a number of his knights.
My moms family is from modern day western ukraine (but are poles).

My family belongs to the Korczak coat of arms.
It was used by several noble families of Clan Korczak in the times of the Kingdom of Poland and the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth.
The coat of arms has Hungarian origins; the three bars represent the Danube, Tisza (or Drava), and Sava rivers.
Earliest mention - 1142 annum (Ogród królewski, Paprocki Bartłomiej, D. Siedlczański, Praga, 1599). The first mention of the coat of arms was 1368, while the oldest known seal bearing the coat dates to 1432. The Gorajscy family was the first to use the seal.
Bearers are largely made up of noble families from Red Ruthenia and Lesser Poland. The arms were confirmed in Lithuania at Union of Horodło.

I should ask my family about our family crest because I remember we had one.
Wake up and smell the coffee.

Santiago Name Meaning
Galician, Portuguese, and Spanish: habitational name from any of the numerous places named for the dedication of their churches to St. James (Sant Iago). The apostle St. James the Greater is the patron saint of Spain; there is a medieval legend that, after the death of Christ, he did not meet a speedy end under Herod Agrippa, but visited and evangelized the Iberian peninsula. His alleged burial site at Compostela has been a place of pilgrimage from all over Europe for over a thousand years.
