The arms are those of van Wassenaer of Holland, probably for Jacob Nanning Arend, Baron Wassenaer (1760 – 1834), Lord of St. Pancras. He entered the military service and in 1787 became Lieutenant Colonel of the Dragoon Guards. In 1814 he was awarded a knighthood, licensed with the title of Esquire. During 1815-1825 he was a member of the House of Representatives. He died in Nijmegen on 4 September 1834.
