This VOLLMER crest below was contributed by Klaus Vollmer of Wuppertal, Germany. Klaus is a cousin who has contributed additional information to the Vollmer genealogy, especially the family in Germany.

The Stuebing Crest

This STUEBING crest has been copied from a copy of a Stuebing genealogy that I obtained from a member of my wife's family.
