Several family shields are known to exist for the Andrist name. Not all branches have one; e.g., for Daerstetten there is no figure available. The Aeschi bei Spiez and the Boltigen shields have been registered in recent time by individuals. They are based on the Oberwil figure but use a different background color. All of the following figures are scanned from the sources of the State Archive of Canton Berne except Oberwil #3. (* Updated: July 24th, 1999)
