Hello and Welcome,
By far the largest amount of Enyart's in this country come down from Carel Enyart ( and various other spellings) who came over from Flanders in the 1600's and settled in New Amsterdam.
I have more than a thousand Enyart (+variations)names that have descended from this one immigrant. We do have another researcher who is always glad to help named Gerre Byrd, she is one who name came down as Engert, or Engart(with variations) her line seems to be more the German descent than the Flemish, but all families with ANY variation of Enyart, Enyeart, Engert, Inyard, Ingart, Enyert, Iniiart, and it goes on and on, seem to merge with each other at many points in our America history. If you send me your farthest information, names, dates, locations, I feel pretty sure tha I can match you up with your line, or point you in the right direction. I'd be glad to help. Gale
