Notes |
- From: 10/14/98
I just stumbled across your web site and noticed that you have my
granduncle Harvey HEMINGWAY listed in your tree. He was born 20 Dec 1916
in ID and passed away last year, 17 Feb 1997 in Salt Lake City, UT. If
you want more info about him, just write and ask. I have been told that
the HEMINGWAY lineage goes back to Ralph HEMENWAY who came here in 1633
from England. So far have been unable to find all info need to support
that claim.
