Very old lineage. By references of historians of the time and others found by Araldis in the city and other private registry files, we could affirm, but not assure, that this shield or another very similar to it, initially appeared from the 11th to the 14th century, particularly in the composition of the troops with which Jaume II conquered Alicante, Elche and Murcia at the end of the 13th century. The references of this family seem to be needed more frequently from the XV to the XIX century, especially the events in Tunisia, accompanying the assault troops in the conquest of October 7, 1,573. All this seems to coincide with the family memory of some of the members of the Peixoto family branch. The study of the family heraldic shield "speaks" to us of those who formed the origin of the P. family, since that was their function, that of manifesting their differential elements to others, since the inclusion of the tree element (oak, pine, cypress) It means that the nobility of the family is ancient and is associated with kindness and perseverance, the supposed virtues of its components. The enamels of the weapon of the P. 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.
