Goal One: To connect all the direct family lines.

Goal Two: To discover if there is a direct family connection to the Ehrhard family’s in Alsace, France and Rhineland, Germany and Thuringia, Germany.
Erfort, Thuringia, Germany is where the Coats-of-Arms was bestowed upon Friedrich Christoph Luis Erhart in 1483.

Goal Three: There were about 32 Ehrhart families’ that came to America before 1776. I have been able to trace 11 of them to Rhineland, Germany. They all lived about 30 to 60 miles from each other in the early 1700’s. Is there a connection between any of them?
