i fail to see how you arrive at a couple of those values as overtones.
how does a value of 2/3 fit in?  division by a power of 2 is allowed
because it represents changing the octave, but where do we get a 2/3?
the only possible explanation i can think of is perhaps it is in the 
overtone series of one of the other prominant notes?
