Translation and Interpretation:

      The Northup Coat of Arms consists of a silver
      bulldog's head, a dog bred in England, between
      two red roses, with green stems and leaves, emblematic
      of England, on a gold background, color of generosity
      and elevation of mind; on a green upper part of the
      sheild, indicating hope and joy is a silver plow
      between two gold wheat sheaves, symbolic of a farm,
      in reference to the definition on the name.
