The arms appear to be for the family of CRAUFURD who by 1840 were considered to be of Burgh Hall, Lincolnshire, when Sir George CRAUFORD (1797-1881), 3rd Baronet Craufurd of Kilbirney, Scotland, was vicar of Burgh-le-Marsh, Lincolnshire and built the hall there. He was the son of, and succeeded, Sir James GREGAN-CRAUFORD (1761-1839), 2nd Baronet who himself succeeded to the baronetcy in 1797 and would have been the holder of the arms at the time of assay.
