L. C. HEMINGER was born in Clearmont County, Ohio, in 1840; he is a son of
Andrew H. and Charlotte (Murphy) Heminger, and is of German extraction. 
He was reared on the farm.  At eighteen years of age he went to Cincinnati
and there served a four years' apprenticeship at the machinist's trade. 
In 1861 he enlisted in Company B, Fifty-ninth Ohio Infantry; was at the
battles of Ivy Mountain, Shiloh and Danville; was discharged October 4,
1864.  At the close of the Rebellion, he resumed his trade and this has
since continued, save one year and a half that he was in the grocery
business.  In 1872 he came to Bowling Green and for some time was in the
employ of the Louisville & Nashville Railroad at this place.  In 1876 he
purchased the foundry which he now owns.  He married, in 1869, Emma
Carter, a native of Lebanon, Ky.  Seven children have been born to this
union:  Charles, Orlando, Robert, Louis, Mamie, Florence and Rowland.  He
is a Republican, and one of the leading machinists of Bowling Green.
