John,

What is your ancestry, German or English? I am of German ancestry. I happen to know that there are a number of Ohio Elberts who are of English ancestry and unrelated. How the common surname came into being in two different European nations is beyond me. I am the genealogist of my Elbert family (Peter Anton Elbert) and I frankly do not recognize any of the names you provided. My immediate family did not come to reside in Ohio until 1909. They arrived from Germany via Missouri, Illinois and Canada. There were some other Elberts in Missouri and Iowa that are unrelated to my family, they lived in Henry County, Mo. I believe. The Iowa Elberts were German and I think the Elberts of Henry County may have been English. Sorry I cannot be of further assistance.
