THOMAS JOSEPH WALSH
Born : December 6, 1873
Deceased : June 6, 1952

Bishop of Newark, 1928-1937
Archbishop of Newark, 1937-1952
 Bishop of Trenton |
 Archbishop of Newark |
Official blazon
Origin/meaning
Bishop Walsh had quite different arms in Trenton as in Newark
As common in US episcopal heraldry, the arms show the arms of the diocese impaled with the personal arms of the (arch)bishop.
I have no information on the personal arms in Trenton.
In Newark he chose a design based on the arms of one of the many Walsh families from England (to represent the name of the bishop), with the addition of three spear-heads, the attribute of St. Thomas, his patron saint.
