This image is a photograph of a painting that has been passed down to me within my Askew family. It is of the quartered arms, that were first:

"(G)ranted on 9 May 1760 to Adam Askew of Newcastle upon Tyne MD, JP for Northumberland, lord of the manors of Ellington, Linton, Hetherslaw and Crookham in that county, and ‘possessed of several other considerable estates’ in Westmorland, Lancashire and the Bishopric of Durham, and the advowsons of the Rectories of Greystock [Greystoke], Plumbland and Bolton in Cumberland." —College of Arms, Queen Victoria Street, London

—and with the Arms of Cary 'in pretence'. And therefore this painting must have been commissioned by one of two Askew brothers, each of whom married a daughter of Robert Cary (1730—1777), of London; and his second wife, Lucy Susannah Yorke (died c.1775)

1. Adam Askew (1752—1844), married 1831, to Amy Ann Cary (1758—1831)
2. Thomas Askew (1771—1858), married 12 Apr 1796, to Lucy Elizabeth Cary (1775—1861)
These two brothers were sons of:
Anthony Askew, Esq., M.D., F.R.S., F.C.P. (1722—1774), and his second wife, Elizabeth Holford (c.1735—1773).
And grandsons of:
Adam Askew, Esq., MD (1696—1773), of Newcastle upon Tyne; and his wife, Anne Crackenthorpe (c.1700—1778), daughter of Richard Crackenthorpe (1662—1708), of Newbiggin Hall, Westmorland; and his wife, Deborah Mottram (born 1662).
Dr. Adam Askew, of Newcastle upon Tyne was the eldest son of:
Anthony Askew M.D. (c.1670—1739), of Kendal, Westmorland; and his wife, Anne Storrs (born c.1664).
"... The patent of 1760 granted paternal arms and crest to Adam Askew (although his ancestors had used them without authority). It also granted arms for the family of his mother, Anne Storrs. This indicates that the Storrs family had no prior legal right to arms. These two coats, in a quarterly shield, were to be borne by all male-line descendants of Adam's father Anthony Askew of Kendal, MD, by his wife Anne Storrs. Because Anne Storrs had become armigerous by means of the grant, she was able to transmit to her descendants any quarterings inherited through her father's line. ...."—excerpt from a letter, dated 1 October 2012, from Timothy Duke, Chester Herald, College of Arms, Queen Victoria Street, London.
Anne Askew née Storrs (born c.1664) was the daughter and co-heiress of:
Adam Storrs (1629–1701/02), of Storrs Hall, Melling, Lancashire; and his wife Jane Rawlinson (1633–1676), daughter of Captain William Rawlinson (1606/07–1680), of Graythwaite & Rusland Hall, near Hawkshead, Lancashire; and his wife Elizabeth Sawrey (1609–1683), daughter of Anthony Sawrey (died 1622), of Plumpton Hall, Ulverston, Lancashire.
Richard Crackenthorpe (1662—1708), of Newbiggin Hall, Westmorland, was the son of:
Christopher Crackenthorp (c.1632—c.1669), of Newbiggin Hall: and his wife of Anne Rawlinson (born c.1645), daughter of Robert Rawlinson (1610—1665), of Cark Hall in Cartmel, Lancashire; and his wife, Jane Wilson (1620—1686), the eldest daughter of Thomas Wilson (1592—1656), of Haversham, Westmoreland
Robert Rawlinson of Cark hall in Cartmel, was the eldest son of:
William Rawlinson (died c. 1619), of Greenhead, Lancashire; and his wife, Margaret Curwen, the sole daughter and heir of Walter Curwen, a younger brother of the Curwens of Workington and of Mireside in Cartmel, Lancashire.
And this Robert Rawlinson had a younger brother:
