The papers of the Starr family of Litchfield, Conn., primarily centering on Henry Starr (1785-1817) and his parents, Daniel (1759-1809) and Rachel Buell Starr (1761-1813), which include correspondence, a notebook, financial records, and documents related to the estates of Daniel and Rachel Buell Starr. Both father and son were tailors. There is a large group of military records created during the War of 1812 when Henry Starr was a lieutenant serving as paymaster in the 37th Regiment U.S. Infantry stationed at New London and Groton, Conn. Henry married Clarissa Peck, and there are several documents which relate to Henry's father-in-law, Timothy Peck, and brother-in-law, Luther Peck.
