Well my 629-1 I feel is a Lew Horton and during my searching to get to that conclusion I saw someone had a letter from them and not S&W. Does anyone know about this? I emailed them 2 weeks ago and never heard back. Maybe I emailed the wrong person for this.

Sure, Contact Earl Minot. They do not charge for their letters (emailed).

Here is my emailed letter, it showed up a couple days after I emailed them. It may have even been on a weekend.
Earls direct email address is there. Any doubt if it's a Lew Horton or not?
