Gerard Legh died 1563 was an English lawyer, known as a writer on heraldry . Life He was the son of Henry Legh, draper, of Fleet Street , London, by his first wife Isabel Cailis or Callis. He was educated by Robert Wroth of Durants in Enfield, Middlesex , and probably by Richard Goodrich . Though Anthony Wood places him in the Athen Oxonienses i. 428 , he was not a student at the University of Oxford . He served an apprenticeship to his father and became a member of the Drapers Company . Subsequently he became a member of the Inner Temple . He travelled in France, and in 1562 was preparing for a journey to Venice. He died of the bubonic plague plague on 13 October 1563, and was buried on the 15th at St. Dunstan in the West , where a monument was erected to his memory.

The work supplies what appears to be a portrait of Legh himself in the fictitious character of Panther Herald. J. P. Cooper described the book as perhaps the most popular heraldic work of the later 16th century. Its theories on gentility are based on those of the Boke of St Albans , with minor modifications the consequence being that highly restrictive definitions of gentility ...
