The "three lions" arms are the arms of England.  I thought Henry the
Lion was was German ... http://www.bartleby.com/65/he/HenryLio.html
agrees.  Duke of Saxony and of Bavaria to 1180, died 1195.  That's at
the real beginning of armory, so it's not clear to me that he'd have
used Bavaria or Saxony.

I'd ask on SCA Heralds'.  They have a lot of sources.
