26 ?[edit]

Starr must have built his candelabrum before March 1845, when Florida joined the Union - unless I've mis-counted? --Wtshymanski (talk) 13:51, 15 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Burial[edit]

According to Find a Grave, Starr was buried in Key Hill Cemetery, Birmingham, England. His name also appears on the database of burials there (based on burial records) maintained by the Jewellery Quarter Research Trust. He was apparently one of three burials in the same plot (the others being Josiah Pidgeon and Eleanor Bunting), and there is no surviving memorial. On these grounds, I am adding the info to the article; but if anyone has any further details or a more reliable source to cite it would be good. His plot is described on Find a Grave as "near the cemetery chapel": the chapel was demolished many decades ago, so that info is likely second-hand. GrindtXX (talk) 13:02, 1 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Sanders vs Saunders[edit]

The article alternates spelling of Mr. Starr's associate between Sanders and Saunders. Which is correct? Zonnypenta (talk) 16:46, 21 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
