The origin of this illustrious surname, by references from historians of the time and others found out by Araldis in the registry files of cities and other private ones, we could affirm, but not assure, that this shield or another very similar to it, initially appeared from the XI to XIV century, particularly in the battle of Las Navas, accompanying the famous archbishop Rodrigo Jimenez de Rada in the final assault and it is said that a member of this family is the one who appropriated the famous tapestry that is usually called "banner of Las Navas " The references of this family seem to be needed more frequently from the 15th to the 19th century, especially the events of the Duke of Osuna's secretary, who, together with the Marquis of Villafranca and the Marquis of Bedmar, prepared the "conspiracy of Venice" to on May 14, 1618, aborted by the still unsurpassed information service of the Most Serene Republic of Venice and its Council of Ten. All this seems to coincide with the family memory of some of the members of the Venancio family branch. They are their weapons: In gold, a wild boar, saber, chopped by a hawk, saber. The study of the family heraldic shield "speaks" to us of those who formed the origin of the V. family, since that was their function, that of manifesting their differential elements to others. The enamels of the weapon of the V. proclaim the following values: Gold is the symbol of the Sun, origin of life, its spiritual characteristics correspond to faith, mercy, temperance, charity and justice, on the other hand said enamel points to the family with happiness, love, nobility and splendor, that is, it is the noblest of metals.
