Footnotes:
This Jewish armorial engraving represents a marriage between the fourth son of the COHEN family of Cannonbury House and the daughter of the SALOMONS family of Broomhill Kent. Both families having long standing Jewish ancestry.

The blazon of the armorial:
argent, a chevron gules cotised azure between in chief two roses and in base a stag's head couped (Cohen), a martlet for difference – impaling – party per chevron gules and sable, a chevron vair between two lions rampant double cued or each holding between the paws a plate charged with an ermine spot and in base a cinquefoil erminois (Salomons).

There is a record of a marriage of a Solomon Levi COHEN (1776-1864), who was the fourth surviving son of Levi Barent COHEN (1747-1808) by Fanny DIAMANTSCHIEFER (died 1818), in 1802 he married Hannah SAMUEL (1776-1881).
They had issue that included Jeanette who in married in 1825 Sir David SALOMONS (1797-1873), the first Jewish Lord Mayor of London. Notably there are numerous records of marriages between members of the SAMUEL and SALOMONS in this period and it maybe the SAMUEL family involved in the record here have adopted the SALOMONS' armorial.
