The particularly early occurence of the name, the wide propagation, in spite of his characteristic, demonstrate that the research about this gender is especially commendable. It is hardly to be supposed that the name Medicus has originated at several places at the same time, just as the German name for it (physician, Arzet). The Latin name, likewise the German, are too peculiary for it. As a result of that is also to be supposed with considerable security that - the case of a later humanistic coating in Latin garment provided - also a family provable only in the 16th or 17th century of this name hangs together with the older bearers. (Extract from Heraldic Sheets, Part I, 1905, S.135ff, 152 and the following).
