Urteaga
Interpretation
Urteaga could mean something like flood or place of hazel trees.
Donna Urteaga writes
My father has done some research on our surname, but the translations are a
little differant from yours. What he found said that Urteaga meant some about
fields of gold or wheat & comes from a small village with that name somewhere
neer San Sabastian. The crest he found shows a green tree with 2 pots (of goldi
think) hanging from it with 2 black wolves standing on thier hind legs like
guards.
