The arms are those of Montagu with those of Montagu in pretence, for Edward Massey of Westown who married in 1743 Isabella, eldest daughter and co-heir of John, Duke of Montagu. After the death of his father-in-law in 1749, Hussey assumed the name and arms of Montagu. In 1753 he was installed Knight of the Bath. In 1762 he was created Baron Beaulieu and in 1784 Earl Beaulieu.
