A few years back I saw an engraved stone bearing the name Louis HEMBREE while visiting my husband's uncle in Galena.Louis ( my husband's uncle) said it was from his grandfather or ggrandfather's grave.The stone was in good condition and the writing on it was plain.I have a snapshot of it "someplace." I s hould have asked how it came to be at Louis' place.I am the family researcher in this family and since it was a hurried visit and not my lineage I didn't ask!Should have! How do you connect with the Hembree line?My husband's mother was a Hembree. My children used to fish in Railey creek while visiting the grandparents.
