The Vernon Family Crest
Daniel Vernon, the colonist, said to be descended from the Vernons, old Earls of Shipbrook, married in Boston (circa 1665), a granddaughter of Governor Hutchinson. He brought over with him and used the armorial bearings we give, found also on the tombstones of various members of the Vernon family in the Old North Burial Ground, at Newport, R. I. (1721-1737).
