I go back via thomas Marion Harp to the Earpe's in Maryland, this is from different people that I have talked to over the last couple of years. They changed names from Earpe to Harp when Joesph Earpe married Mary Budd, she was listed as Harp. My Harp's are via my grandmother Martha Jane Harp Brown she was the daughter of Tillmon "Tilly" Harp and Sarah Atchley. They were located in Clay Co. Tennessee.
