===Origin/meaning=== | ===Origin/meaning=== | ||
The bishop used rather different arms in Los Angeles as in Sacramento. | |||
The cross in the first arms simply is a symbol of the Christican church. The bell is an obvious canting symbol and the green colour refers to Ireland, the ancestral country of the family. The lion is taken from the arms of the Irish O'Gorman family, to which his grandmother belonged; the only armigerous member of the family. | |||
As common in US episcopal heraldry, the second arms show the arms of the diocese, here Sacramento, impaled with the personal arms of the bishop. | |||
Here the arms are simplified and showing two bells for his two appointments and the lion from his previous arms. | |||
[[Literature]] : | The achievement is completed with the heraldic insignia of a prelate of the rank of bishop. | ||
