I thought since all this Starr activity was taking place I would again try my Laura Starr! I just was given a copy of a page from the Covington KY city directory from 1884 that lists Laura Starr living at 817 Russell St. There is also a E.J. Starr at the same address and he lists his occupation as a Blacksmith. I assume this was Lauras Father. Anyone know of him? Laura Sarah Starr m.
