I am confused. Are Fillberts and Chestnuts two different nuts? Can anybody direct me to an on-line source for information? I have tried "Google" with no luck.

The word 'filbert' is used regionally in Oregon to refer to hazelnuts in general. Use in this manner has faded partly due to the efforts of Oregon's hazelnut growers to brand their product to better appeal to global markets and avoid confusion.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filbert
The nuts can be eaten candied, boiled or roasted; the former are often sold under the French name marrons glacés. One easy method for roasting is to cut a slit in the top of each nut and heat in a shallow container, tossing occasionally, at 200-220 °C for 10-15 minutes.
There's a picture at the bottom of the Chestnut page. A picture of the filbert is on the bulkfoods.com
