John's paternal Latimer arms are distinct from the extensive matrimonial and inherited quarterings that could appear in later achievements. His marriage to Catherine Parr created an important royal-marital connection but did not replace the Neville paternal coat.

Notes / sources

Catherine Parr's later queenship is a major upward royal connection, but her Tudor and Parr quarterings belong to her own achievement and should not be conflated with John's paternal Neville arms.
