There are different Williams houses in Spain. From very remote centuries it was known and highly regarded. Historians rightly note that not all lineages of this surname have a common origin. We found it in León. The oldest weapons are those indicated in: Repertoire of blazons of the Hispanic community - letters STUVWXYZ Vicente De Cadenas and Vicent Instituto Salazar y Castro. Those of León bring: In gules, a hand, of flesh, put on stick. Others bring: In gules, a band, of gold, engolada of two dragantes, of sinople. Others: In silver, a rampant lion, of gules, linguated and clawed, of saber. The study of the family heraldic shield "speaks" to us of those who formed the origin of the W. family, since that was their function, that of manifesting to the others their differential elements, since the inclusion of the hand element is the characteristic of the family towards life, probably it was influenced or related to significant members of the Church. The enamels of the W. weapon proclaim the following values: the Gules is the symbol of strength, power, fervent love for God and neighbor, such is the meaning of this enamel, to which we should add the desire of dominance, courage, audacity, strength and magnanimity, a high percentage of this type of family shield was given by acts of war.
