Wolterstorff origin
My son just got engaged to a woman with the last name of Wolterstorff. Being Irish, he requested a print of their coat of arms together, but I cannot find her name anywhere. She believes it is Germanic, however the most I can find is Wolters. Can anyone help with this?

Wolterstorff is a German name as you can see at http://www.verwandt.de/karten/absolut/wolterstorff.html. It's an alteration of the common placename Woltersdorf which you can situate at http://tr.im/h7Ep. Other variants are Woltersdorff and Wolterstorf.
