The Harp
The harp is a unique member of the stringed instrument family. Like other members of the string family, the harp's sound is produced by vibrating strings stretched between parts of a wooden frame or box. On a harp, the strings' vibrations are produced by being plucked by hand, while seven pedals at the bottom of the harp adjust the length of the strings to produce more notes.

The harp is in the strings family. Other instruments in the same family are: the violin/fiddle, viola, cello, double bass, electric violin, electric viola, electric cello, electric double bass, harp, laser harp, banjo, and the ukulele. There are still a lot more though.. but I felt like naming a few. :) Hope this at least helped a little.
For one thing, "string instruments" and "stringed instruments" are not the same. String instruments are the viol family and stringed instruments are any instrument that has strings. The piano and harp both qualify.Now, the piano is a percussion instrument that has strings and the harp is an unbowed stringed instrument.
