See note to lot 437. The arms were first granted to Martin of London in 1572; later the family settled both in Essex (the son of Captain Matthew Martin) and in Worcestershire (John Martin, 1692-1767, of this line bought Overbury Court, still in the family). See D.S. Howard, op. cit., pp.465, 588 and 645.
