Harold: I don't recognize your Montgomery's, but I do have a few of tehm, from London Britain township and thereabouts, at my web site, at http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/Acres/5127/fathersfam/genealogy.html. If Yahoo tells you oops, no such page, wait awhile and clear your browser cache before you try again. Also, my father said his Aunt Mayme Smith (Smiths of White Clay Creek on the state lines) used to visit someone in West Chester, I think he said, named Le Fevre. You don't have any clue who that would be, do you? The Lefevre's wre Quaker, and Aunt Mayme's mother was a Thompson.
