1: Anastasie de Lamoure - New Badge

Per pale azure and Or, a horse rampant contourny counterchanged, a chief ermine.

We found no conflict.

5: Deirdre Scot - New Device

Per chevron sable and Or, a chevron between two horse's heads contourny argent and a thistle vert tufted purpure.

We found a possible conflict: Bertran of Edwinstowe|9201E|d|Per saltire sable and vert, in pale a griffin passant maintaining a sword inverted and a tower argent.

8: Giovanna Elisabetta Cellini - New Name & New Device

All name examples given show the use of two parts, a given and byname. Is the construction, combining three name parts, typical for this time and place? Otherwise documentation appears good.

The closest match we found: Martin de Mont Blanc|9001W|d|Purpure, four bendlets enhanced and in base a mullet Or.
