The Arms are those of PRITCHARD of Brosely, Shropshire, for John Pritchard, born 1760, died 1837.
In 1654 a Welsh family named Ap Richard migrated into Shropshire where they
were known as PRITCHARD. John and Ann Pritchard lived and died in
Sutton Maddock and had 6 daughters and three sons.
Born in 1760 the eldest of these boys was JOHN PRITCHARD who became a
banker and solicitor at Bridgnorth and Broseley.
He married Ann Cranage of Coalbrookdale, whose father and uncle had obtained
a patent in 1766 for converting pig iron into bar iron by the use of raw pit coal
instead of charcoal.
John Pritchard died in 1837 having obtained the farm that had been in the Granage
family possession for many years.
John and Ann Pritchard evidently established themselves in the heart of the
Shropshire establishment as their eldest and second sons became magistrates
and Deputy Lieutenants for Shropshire. George, the elder of the two, served
as High Sheriff of Shropshire in 1861 and John, the second son was a barrister
who represented Bridgnorth in Parliament 1863-8.
