Origin/meaning
As common in US episcopal heraldry, the arms show the arms of the diocese impaled with the personal arms of the bishop.
The personal arms are based on the coat of arms of an Irish McCarthy family, Earls of Clancarty and used here as a symbol for the name of the bishop. The martlet is from the coat of arms of St. Edward, King and Confessor and the lilies symbolize St. Joseph, the Bishop's two name Patrons.
