“This family traces its descent from the Byroms of Salford and is entitled to use the arms confirmed to that branch in 1613. (Canon Raines) Author’s note: The Byroms of Manchester in assuming the arms of the Salford branch, should have retained the crescent in the chevron which indicates descent from a second son. They adopted instead, a blue field for distinction which is shown in the dexter chief point.”
