This is an ongoing project to create an exhaustive ordinary of Johann Siebmacher's Wappenbuch from 1605. I am working from the digitization of it available here. If you find any error, please let me know. As a work in progress, it will be updated as I have time.
All blazons are my own. Note that in some cases, shields with a helmet facing sinister have had their arms reversed as well (e.g., a bend is displayed as a bend sinister, the tinctures of the field reversed, etc. So if you think you've found an error, double check the helm on top!) Each blazon is identified with the name of the owner as it appears in Siebmacher, with these conventions: I have transcribed vocalic v as u, and expanded ē, Gē:, and V̄ to en, genannt, and Von, respectively. The number in parentheses is the plate number on which the arms occur.
Checky argent and gules, two bars azure, die Munich (147), von Teüchern (161).
Checky gules and argent, die Karnitzky (73), Zavelstein (226).
Checky gules and argent, two pallets azure and a chief argent, von Luczendorf (170).
Quarterly 1st and 4th Or, a bear rampant sable, 2nd and 3rd checky gules and argent, die Spiller (35).
Quarterly 1st and 4th Or, an eagle sable charged with a crescent argent, 2nd and 3rd checky argent and gules, overall an escutcheon per bend gules and argent, Brüg und Lignitz (6).
