Oh! What it must have been. A frightful thing to be the only one of an entire family, small in stature and very young, when the smoke cleared from the great Black Plague of Europe. 

Sophie, ( photograph ) of sturdy Viking blood rose to the task. Taking over the Heiberg coat of Arms and the family jewels and fortune, being from a well known family of three continents, sought to restore the family worth and might. 

From the king came the Earldom that had belonged to her father and the signet ring that he wore till his death she set out to replenish the name of Heiberg, The ring is now in the Family Museum and this coat of arms hangs on the wall.
