Any info on this family crest please?

Post by Dion »

Good day to you all.

I'm trying to find out more about this family crest which is engraved on a set of candle sticks from Sheffield 1779.
Any information would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance.

Lovely candlesticks. On the viewer's left the quartered arms of COGAN and BLACKBURN (Argent a fess nebuly between three mullets sable) can be seen. On the viewer's right are the arms of NANGLE (Azure, three lozenges in fess or.) A casual Google Search for Cogan and Nangle bring up Irish families. These names also change their spellings over the years. Kind regards.
