- Marsh.org horse-head arms: restored from artwork preserved with the original Marsh Family Community website. The silver horse-and-crosses design is attributed to Marsh of Lloyd House, Staffordshire; Burke's General Armory records the same design for Marshe of Darks, South Mimms, and that relationship is also discussed in the London and Middlesex Archaeological Society Transactions, Volume 5. The precise source and artist of the old Internet rendering are unknown.
