Hello, Four lines of my dad's family lived in Napa starting in the late 1800's. John Henry STAHR/STARR emigrated there from Canada and married Ida/Idella Johnston on 29th of September, 1886. Idella was supposedly born in Napa. I am still trying to find out if she is the daughter of James Wesley Johnston of Yountville (who did have a daughter named Idella). There was a Joseph and Margertet Starr family on the 1900 Napa census that I think may have been related. A William Starr who ran a second hand store in Cotati (Sonoma Co) in the 1950-1960's was a cousin of my grandfather's. My FRASH's emmigrated from Germany about 1870 and were on the 1880 census. The Balthazar DARMS moved to Napa in 1883 from Sauk Co. WI but had emmigrated to there from Switzerland around 1850. Ursula Trueb (wife of Henry Trueb) was Balthazar's sister. They were in Napa county by 1870. Some of the related lines from marriages are: STARR - BOLTON FRASH - STIEFEL, APPINGER, WELLS, BOSSINGER DARMS - LINDER, SCHMIDT, HAAS I would love to contact anyone researching these families.
