===Origin/meaning=== | ===Origin/meaning=== | ||
Bishop Walsh had quite different arms in Trenton as in Newark | |||
As common in US episcopal heraldry, the arms show the arms of the diocese impaled with the personal arms of the (arch)bishop. | |||
I have no information on the personal arms in Trenton. | |||
In Newark he chose a design based on the arms of one of the many Walsh families from England (to represent the name of the bishop), with the addition of three spear-heads, the attribute of St. Thomas, his patron saint. | |||
