Les armoiries et le cimier sont ceux des Higginson et Coke pour Alexander Higginson (1746-1793) originaire de Great Marlow, Buckinghamshire et précédemment de Calcutta. La famille Higginson fit fortune dans la construction de quais en bois et l'exploitation de leurs terres dans l'Essex près de Marlow. Alexander Higginson travailla pour la Compagnie des Indes à Calcutta servant à la Chambre de commerce et fut chef du conseil provincial de Burwadan (aujourd'hui Bardhaman) en Bengale Occidental. Il épousa la miniaturiste anglaise Martha Issacs (d.1840) rencontrée en Inde avant de revenir à Londres en 1782 ayant amassé une importante fortune. Une miniature d'Higginson par James Smart a été vendue chez Sotheby’s, Londres le 4 juillet 2019, lot 60.
