D e s i g n r a t i o n a l e : The s i n g l e b l a c k l i o n on the f i e l d o f g o l d is meant to say that the family is descended from those from the Swabian tribal, or stem Duchy. According to the book, the Black Forest Its People and Legends (1885) By Lisbeth Gooch Seguin, on page 37, the Suabian dwelt in the western portion of the B l a c k F o r e s t , having their own special dialect. The l i o n ' s s e c o n d r o l e is in the form of a canting charge for the family name, Aberle. The Aberle surname is explained in the Dictionary of German Names by Hans Bahlow translated by Edda Gentry (for the Max Kade Institute for German American studies University of Wisconsin-Madison 1993). The Aberle surname on page 2 is as follows: "Aberle, Aberlin is the Swab.-Alem. Short form for Abrecht or Albrecht e.g, Aberlin.” The book, A Dictionary of Surnames, by Patrick Hanks and Flavia Hodges mentions on page seven that the ABERLE name is derived from the first name, (Albrecht-Albert) meaning "noble," "bright," and "famous" (Adal being the root meaning "noble"). Spelling variations are ABERLIN, ABERLEN, and ABERLEE. -Lin, -len, -le, and -lee act as a diminutive meaning "little" or "small.” 3 The l i o n is a traditional noble device. The book, Heraldry Sources and Meanings by Ottfried Neubecker, mentions on page 110 that the l i o n is a symbol of strength, agility, and in fables, he is described as being noble, and king of beasts. The Luther Rose, being held by the lion is in reference to the fact that the family was, by tradition, Lutheran in Faith. (Johann Georg Aberle was a judge of the Ecclesiastical Court at Schwanenbach, which was within the Evangelical Lutheran Parish of Hornberg, Baden, until his death on the 14th day of January, 1788. The prior information was provided by Trudy Schenk, an Accredited Genealogist specializing in Germanic research. The upper portion of the shield reflects the color from the sleeve on the crest, which brightens the design. The two golden coins allude to Kenneth Eugene Aberle’s profession as a buyer and his work in purchasing.

The sprig of six leaves symbolically says "I am the stem and I have six fine children who are living extensions of the family.” Also, the sprig is of an oak tree, symbolizing his marriage which took place in Sherman Oaks, CA. The crest shows his arm raising the family banner as the originator of the family coat of arms. The arm is vested in Murray and gold, which represent the colors of his alma mater, The University of Minnesota, which his father, Erwin Bassett Aberle, had attended prior to Kenneth. Coincidentally, Johann Adam Aberle served as a soldier in the Badische Infantry Regiment von Neuenstein stationed at Frieburg, in 1825; the arms of the Grand Duchy of Baden consisted of g o l d / y e l l o w and r e d as well. The m o t t o is taken from Proverbs 23:23, " B u y T r u t h a n d S e l l I t N o t , " which means to seek knowledge or truth, and not to forsake it. The arms began as a petition to the College as a Father’s Day gift in the spring of 1985.American College of Heraldry, 1985 (vol.
