_Richard Geering_ (Vol. viii., p. 340.).--If Y. S. M. will favour me with
the parentage of "Richard Geering, one of the six clerks in chancery in
Ireland," I shall be better able to judge whether he was of the family of
Geering, Gearing, or Geary, of South Denchworth in the co. of Berks, of
which family I have a pedigree. I can also supply their coat of arms and
crest. Any information of the Geerings, ancestors of the said Richard, the
chancery clerk, will be acceptable to your occasional correspondent
