von = from
zu = at
"von und zu" appears in a German noble's name as do "von" or "zu" separately. ("und" means "and") The "von" part indicates where the family came from. That would be a town or region. The "zu" indicates where the family is now. And by "is" I mean the lands over which that noble family has control.
What that shows is that "von und zu" together indicate a family that originated in a place and still holds control there.
General answer is that "von un zu" refers to a person descended from German nobility that held sway over a region for quite some time. These titles date back hundreds of years and were only legally invalidated in Germany in 1913. Other countries legalities vary.
