HUMANE SOCIETY OF THE COMMONWEALTH OF MASSACHUSETTS
| English | blazon wanted |
Origin/meaning
The Humane Society of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, better known as the Massachusetts Humane Society was founded in 1786 by a group of Boston citizens who were concerned about the needless deaths resulting from shipwrecks and drownings and wanted to find ways to save lives.
I only know about the arms on a token from 1791 shown above.
Unfortunately we have no information on the meaning or origin of these arms yet.
If you have any information on the origin or meaning of these arms, or have additional images that you want to share, please mail us your information !
