The Sheaffe Family Crest

The arms we give are found on a seal which was used in 1713 by Jacob Sheaffe, of Boston. We find also a tricking of arms (1698), of Curwin impaling Sheaffe, and it is identical. The different emigrants of the name all came from the Sheaffes of Cranbrook, Co. Kent, England. The Boston branch began with William (1685), whose greatgrandson, also William, was the father of Sir Roger Hale-Sheaffe, Bart., of the British Army, a noted loyalist, who married Margaret Coffin, cousin of that other noted loyalist, Sir Isaac Coffin, R. N. He died in 1851, s. i., and the baronetcy was extinct. His arms, as given by Burke, are quite different from that borne by our Jacob Sheaffe, and by his descendants, known as the New Hampshire branch.
