The arms are those of Slaughter of Cheyney Court, co. Hereford, with a cadency mark for the fourth son, impaling Colborne. Francis Slaughter, the fifth son of Bellingham Slaughter Esq., of Cheyney Court, co. Hereford, became the forth surving son on the death of his unmarried brother 1727. It is possible that these are his arms however the maiden name of his wife is not recorded in surviving pedigrees of the family.
