ZULETA In On~ate (Gipuzkoa) and Argentina, it is a variation of Zuloeta, Zulueta, the meaning as you know is "place of holes, or better, "place of caves"

Coat of arms: In gold, a blue stripe (From upper left, to down right) with 3 gold stars on it

Apart of thge Zuletas,there are other two branches of this family, the first one is ZULETA DEL CASTILLO, and the second is ZULETA DE REALES, this second one in Andalusia, they have different coat of arms.

There is a ZULOETA Palace in On~ate, In 1388 is documented that a man: Pedro Lopez de Zuloeta lived in On~ate, so I think the origin of your family is clear

To get a complete family history, there is only two ways, 1.- contact with a proffesional genealogist (I am not one of them), 2.- Investigate yourself, the better way is in the Mormon archives (they have microfilms of all basque church archives), begin with your father,s record and go back and back.
