A short biography of Clements Starr [01463] and Elizabeth (Fate) Starr [01464] published in a Beal City centennial book.

This excerpt is the basis of speculation that Joseph Voisin [00021] traveled from Ontario, Canada with the Starr family. Joseph is listed in the Starr household in the 1880 US census (000907). Deed records indicate Joseph sold half the 80 acres of land he purchased in 1879 to Clements Starr sometime in 1880. The two families were adjacent neighbors.
