Tremoile

Tremoile or Tremaille: this puzzling name occur in an ancient roll, and the copyist in 1562 supposed the bearing to be 'men's hearts.' It has been thought that they were trefoils, and that both the name and the drawing had been mistaken. Mr.Wyatt Papworth puts them under 'mill-hoppers' (Qy. the wooden troughs belonging to a corn-mill) in noting these arms, but given no reason. The family of TREMAYLE seem to bear three brogues(see under Foot), but in one blazon they are described as bearing trammels, the meaning of which is doubtful,
