Family Shield or Wapen

It has been known for some time that the family had a wapen, or shield, but the exact details have been lost for 59 years or so. Current research has brough this shield into the open, though it is not certain if this is the correct shield, it is the one listed in Germany heraldry books, so until further research gives me a better idea then this is it.

And yes this is the colour it should be!
