Cordrey Family Crest
The English surname Cordrey is a nickname for a proud man, from the Old French term cuer de roi meaning “king’s heart.” The name is first recorded in the year 1200 when Rober de Querderai is registered in the "Cartularium Abbathiae de Rievalle", Yorkshire. Additional early records include Thomas le Cordrey, in the 1275 Subsidy Rolls of Worcestershire, and John de la Corderie, in the "Calendarium Genealogicum", dated 1292.
