where is my family crest?

well since around 2005 i lived my whole life in Fukuoka, I was adopted at the start of 2006 and I lived between Japan and Australia since then. I'm currently in japan now and I am searching for my family crest. My family name is Niita, I don't remember what kanji it was written with as I was 8 when I last wrote and saw it( think it was Vc) my name was changed to my adoptive parents name after my adoption. I wanted to find out the origin of the Niita clan, I remember my dad saying we had samurai heritage and the Niita clan was 'popular' around 13th centaury but that's all I have.
1) Australia's Japanese population is VERY small so I couldn't anything at any libraries or heritage places or museums. There are no Japanese culture clubs or anything at all really. I haven't even met another Japanese person in my area! Most Asians here are Hmong.
2) I looked in Fukuoka but the Niita clan is not originally Fukuokan so there was nothing, plus a fire destroyed a lot.
3) Both my parents were born Niita's (not related-at it's not traceable anyway haha) that is all I have unfortunately. My name is Aya Niita/ Niita Aya (birth name)

Vc is generally pronounced as "nitta".
