Hi cinabear, I finally had some time to start working on this project again. I found two coats of arms for you. The first is for Armstrong (Scottish), which originated around the area of Cumberland, and the second is Chaney (also Scottish) which originated around the area of Buckinghamshire. Although, I did not find an Irish version of Chaney COA, I did find an Irish version for Armstrong. Apparently, some of the Armstrong's migrated to the area of Ulster, Ireland around the eigth century from Scotland-England. The surname of Willmeth is of Swiss origin and seems to originate from the town of Berne, Switzerland. Hope that helps. I'll upload the COA's to the community page for you. Kevin (kieferkp)
