Without this enriching knowledge, there is a hollow yearning. No matter what our attainments in life, there is still a vacuum, an emptiness, and the most disquieting loneliness.” A Alex Haley R D Printed and bound by DIGGIP0D ii 1 In remembrance of all our relatives who made immeasurable sacrifices that allowed all of us to arrive to this point in time.

We all have our private reasons as to why we are excited about our relatives and our legacy. Some of us merely hope to reveal more about where we came from. Others are the "Custodians of the Family Records" and appreciate how significant information about our ancestry is, and there is hope one of the young will continue the research and continue to put our updated lineage into publication, even if it is just a notebook and will want to share it with other family members. Some could be mystery lovers and get a charge of following the hints or some merely want to verify that family tales are genuine. Whatever the reason for your help, interest and participation, we thank you all for your efforts T in providing and correcting data and pictures on The Starr Connection website. This genealogy is neither perfect nor complete and is provided as an incomplete study to see where we are in our research at this point in time. Please review and advise us on any improvements you judge necessary. Our thanks to everyone who has contributed to our research and special thanks go to Herlinda Lopez Olivarez who has donated information gathered over the last twenty plus years. She amassed information F some of which is detailed in the following segments by searching and analyzing materials in depository libraries, burial grounds, places of worship, archives and of course, cyberspace. Because of everyone’s contributions, we can now make our own connections to our individual and unique family lines that branch of off the main family trees. All the information gathered has also been added to our Family Genealogy Site located @ http://starrconnection.tribalpages.com/. A R D Thank you Herlinda and thanks to all family members that have researched and donated data, documents and pictures to our project in order to document our collective past. viii
