For those who are interested in the heraldry, or Coats of Arms, associated with the Christie, Christy & Chrystie surname , they are now displayed online at:
www.heraldry-online.org.uk
The Arms are those that are officially recorded in Scotland at the Lyon Court (1672-1973). It must be noted that the Arms displayed are the property solely of those named or their descendants. They cannot be used by anyone else, even if they do share the same surname.
It is worth mentioning that the some families were not very good at registering their Arms as required by Scottish law. Therefore, there may be other Arms in use of some antiquity, however, they are not technically legal in Scotland until recorded, or matriculated, with the Court of Lord Lyon.
In addition to the Arms officially recorded in Scotland, there are Arms belonging to other named individuals listed in other reliable, but unofficial, publications.

From the Port Huron (Michigan) Times Herald, Nov. 29, 1913, page 1
“To be buried on one grave – funeral of Christy boys will be held at Algonac on Sunday. Kernol and Leslie Christy, the two Marine City young men who lost their lives when the steamer Argus [actually Hydrus] went to the bottom, will be buried in one grave at Algonac on Sunday afternoon. The remains will arrive in this city from Kincardine and will be met here by Undertaker Gilbert of Algonac. The funeral services will be held at the Episcopal Church at Algonac on Sunday afternoon at 1:30 and will be conducted by Rev. Mr. Mitchell. The bodies of the drowned sailors were accompanied to this city by the father and brother-in-law who have been searching the shore in the vicinity of Kincardine and Goderich for days. Their patience and search was rewarded, for a few days ago the bodies of the Christy boys came ashore in the vicinity of Kincardine. Many Marine City people will attend the funeral service.”
