Symbolism of arms - Rock and Pit[edit]

The "compartment of rock in the middle thereof a pit Proper" refers to the Foot family saying "Pit and Rock", used to sign letters and telegrams to each other. It is from Isaiah 51.1 "Hearken to me, ye that follow after righteousness, ye that seek the LORD: look unto the rock whence ye are hewn, and to the hole of the pit whence ye are digged". See Foot, Sarah (1980). "His Family". My Grandfather Isaac Foot. St Teath: Bossiney Books. p. 25. ISBN 0906456436.. DuncanHill (talk) 20:31, 1 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
