The seal with the quartered shield and motto Grata Manu, can be attributed to the arms of Sir William Pratt Call (1781-1851), 2nd Baronet of Cornwell. He was the son of a Military engineer, Sir John Call, MP, 1st Baronet, and his wife, Philidelphia, daughter of William Batty, MD. William Pratt Call succeed to the Baronetcy in 1801. He married Lady Louisa Forbes in 1806 and had one son and four daughters.
