My Saunders who came from the Thame area of Oxfordshire totally confuse the issue by using a Woolhouse Coat of Arms. This seems to have been derived from a marriage to a Woolhouse in 1816 although there is no evidence of any connection to the Yorkshire Woolhouses to whom the coat of arms belonged.

The name Woolhouse was preserved for many generations including branches of the family which moved to Sandy in Bedfordshire. They were at least four generations of saddlers who used the CofA on their invoices seemingly without any grant of arms.
