To the arms of Delves, mentioned previously as a characteristic example of those arms which combine other charges with objects of the same name as the family, we may add those of Bonbury of Stanney, in whose silver chess-rooks we see three good castles.
[The name Bunbury (Bonbury) derives from the Old English personal name Buna, and the burh, which means "fortress". Bon of course is French for "good".]
