I read yesterday at the Baker co,Fl site, a lot of graves there and also on the census there were plenty of Starlings. Hope this helps.

My maiden name is Starling, My father was Richard D. Starling and his father was William Starling married to Allie Taylor on 12-16-12. I am searching for any information on my fathers grandparents, his grandmother was full indian but I don't know what tribe or her name. Not sure whether it was his mother's mother or father's mother. Anything anyone can offer would be appreciated. Thank you

Julie-

I have started back on working on my family history.
I'm also looking for a Starling that is Indian.
I've been told that my g-grandfather's mother was full blooded Creek Indian. My grandfather was Joseph Starling who married Ellen Prevatt. Joseph's father was William Starling who married Roxanna Reed. I've been told that Roxanna or her mother was full Indian.

Have you found any information on your family yet?
