The Bard Family Crest

Benoist Bard, Ecuyer, of the Isle of Rhé, France, took refuge in England, in 1685, at the time of the Revocation of the Edict of Nantes. One of his sons, Pierre Bard, came over to New York in 1706. He was known as Colonel Bard, as he commanded a Regiment of Her Majesty's Foot in the Province of New Jersey. He occupied other high offices in the colony. Other descendants of Benoist Bard, the Huguenot refugee, started families in England. The Bards in America intermarried with the Marmion (of Delaware), de Normandie, Cruger, Belcher, Sands, etc., families.
