Nora,
There is a very interesting book on the long history of the Mountenay/Montany/Monteny/ de la Montaigne family published in USA by the ultimate Mountany researcher who publishes the magazine of the Society of Johannes de la Montagne, the early merchant to New Holland (Manhattan). Extremely well done, so if you can identify your history, your connection goes back to the Huguenots of the 1500's.(The French Reformed Church similar to the DutchReformed movement, but in France.)
Let me know if we are on the same track.
June
