Sir Samuel Egerton Leigh

I have recently been asked to produce the arms believed to have been used by Sir Samuel Egerton Leigh Bart.

The third baronet’s quarterings are believed to be represented as follows :

1 & 8  Leigh     : Or a Lion rampant Gules

2      Egerton   : Argent a Lion rampant Gules between three Pheons Sable 
                  

3      Cavendish : Sable three Bucks’ Heads cabossed Argent  (undifferenced as Lord Cavendish of Furness uses today; the quartering of these arms also serves to difference them)

4      Stanley   : Argent on a bend Azure three Stags’ Heads cabossed Or (the arms of the Earl of Derby)

5      Clifford  : Checky Or and Azure a fess Gules

6      Brandon   : Barry of ten Argent and Gules a Lion rampant Or ducally crowned per pale of the First  and Second

7      Henry VII : Quarterly 1st & 4th, Azure three Fleurs-de-Lis Or  (France); 2nd & 3rd, Gules three Lions passant guardant in pale Or (England)
