Dear Mr. Bolton:
After reading Architechure and Destruction by Mr. Thomas Young "T Y" Harp in the February 9, 1971 Daily Enterprise concerning the HARP - WEISS - MONTGOMERY family connections, I would like to add a few facts to establish earlier ancestry of some of these families mentions.

Americus Missouri Harp, Mr. Thomas Young "T Y" Harp's aunt, married first Warren Alexander Montgomery, a son of John Montgomery. I have a handsome picture of Mrs. Americus Missouri Harp Montgomery, and I have been told by later members of the family that Mrs. Weiss was a delightful lady and noted for her good conversation abilities.
