Lewis Weston (and others?) quartered the arms : 1 - Dillwyn, 2 : Or an eagle displayed Sable(?), 3 : Argent, a chevron Azure between three ravens Sable and on a canton Sable a pheon Argent (Traherne), 4 : Either Dillwyn (repeated), or Argent a lion rampant between three crescents Gules, overall a pale Azure.
