Rovray

Azure semee of Acorns Argent, a Buck salient Or.

Željko Heimer, 23 October 1999

A tricky canting flag! The probable link is to be found with the acorns.  French toponyms like Rouvray or Grosrouvre originate from "rouvre" (popular Latin "roborem") designating a species of oak (chêne rouvre - Quercus petrae).
