The armiger’s maternal grandfather was a first generation US citizen of parents who had emigrated from Germany with the surname Dehn. The most common search for heraldic images for the name Dehn results in armorial bearings with a Germanic origin (Or, a cauldron Sable and in chief a row of three stars Argent). As no direct connection can be established between the armiger and the historical arms described above for the surname Dehn, the armiger decided to create his own. Wanting to pay tribute to the historic arms associated with the surname Dehn while creating arms unique to himself, the armiger decided to combined elements from the historic arms of Dehn with those of the historic arms associated with his wife’s maiden name of Damron (Argent, between three roundels Gules, a chevron Sable). | The armiger’s maternal grandfather was a first generation US citizen of parents who had emigrated from Germany with the surname Dehn.
