Descriptio
English: Portrait of Sir Robert Cotton, 1st Baronet (d.1631) of Connington. Collection of Society of Antiquaries, London. Arms of Cotton (Ancient): Argent, a bend sable between three pellets. The arrangement as seen on monuments in Exeter Cathedral to Bishop William Cotton (d.1621), Bishop of Exeter and on monument to his grandson Edward Cotton (d.1675), Treasurer of Exeter Cathedral, may be th result of 20th c. restoration.(See images[1]). William Cotton (fl.1378,1400) lord of the manor of Cotton in Cheshire, married Agnes de Ridware, daughter and heiress of Walter de Ridware, lord of the manor of Hamstall Ridware in Staffordshire.(Vivian, Lt.Col. J.L., (Ed.) The Visitations of the County of Devon: Comprising the Heralds' Visitations of 1531, 1564 & 1620, Exeter, 1895, pp.240-1) The junior branch of the Cotton family descended from Agnes de Ridware adopted the armorials of Ridware (Azure, an eagle displayed argent) [1] in lieu of their paternal arms of Cotton, which junior branch included Sir Robert Cotton, 1st Baronet, of Connington (1570-1631), founder of the Cottonian Library. The senior branch, of which Bishop Cotton was a member, retained the ancient arms of Cotton (Argent, a bend sable between three pellets). Arms: Cotton impaling Wessenham/Weasenham (of Norfolk?) (Sable, a fess dancette between three mullets pierced argent) of 4 quarters. Arms of Weasenham recorded by Weever in East Winch Church, Norfolk (The antiquities of King's Lynn By William Taylor (antiquary.), p.43[2]).

  1. (Per John Guillim (d.1621), Display of Heraldry: "The Field is Azure, an Eagle display'd Argent; by the Name of Cotton of Huntingdon and Cambridgeshire. Crest, out of a Crown proper, a Demy Eagle display'd Argent, armed and membred Gules. These were anciently the Armes of the Family of Ridware; but William Cotton (about the latter End of Edw.3.) having married Agnes, Daughter and Heir of Walter de Ridware of Hampstall-Ridware in the County of Stafford, his Son John Cotton, left his Paternal Coat, (Argent, a Bend Sable between three Pellets) and bare that of Ridware. Of this Family was Sir Robert Cotton of Connington in the County of Huntingdon, created Baronet May 22. 1611. who is deservedly famous amongst the Learned Part of Mankind, for the valuable Library of Books, which he industriously collected, as well as for his own Personal Qualifications."[3])
