Settipani: Continuite (2000) p.144 stemma attempts to connect the African imperial Memmii; p.172 proposes a descent for M.Acilius Memmius Glabrio. 
He attaches C.Memmius (pr 58 BC) to the Galeria branch in opposition to Sumner, making him a son of RE14. I know of no evidence that the cos suff 34 BC was in tribus Galerius.
Sumner: Orators (1973) p.85-90 for proposed stemma of republican Memmii, which I follow. He argues against the tr mil of 134/132 being the same man as the tr pl of 111.
