The crest is that of Lloyd, almost certainly for John-Ynyr Burges (1798-1889) of Parkanaur, co. Tyrone and Thorpe Hall and East Ham, co. Essex. He married Lady Caroline Clements, youngest daughter of Nathaniel, 2nd Earl of Leitrim, in 1833. He succeeded to estates of his great uncle Ynyr Burges of the death of his relation Margaret, Dowager Countess of Poulett in 1838. He then took the arms of Lloyd.
