BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH
Samuel Starr was born July 31, 1810, in Leyden, New York. He enlisted in the United States
Army in October 1832, and served with the Engineer Battalion during the Mexican War. He was
appointed brevet second lieutenant, 2nd Dragoons, in June 1848 and served in Texas from 1848
to 1854, in Kansas in 1855, in the Sioux and Utah expeditions in 1855-1856, and in the Western
territories until 1861. During the Civil War, Starr held a number of posts. He served as aide de
camp to Brigadier General Joseph Mansfield, who was in command of the Department of
Washington, and in August 1861 was appointed colonel of the 5th New Jersey Infantry. He later
commanded the 3rd Brigade, Hooker’s Division, Army of the Potomac. He resigned his
commission in the volunteer service in October 1862 and returned to the 2nd U.S. Cavalry
(formerly the 2nd Dragoons). In April 1863, he was promoted to major of the 6th U.S. Cavalry.
After recovering from wounds received at Fairfield, Pennsylvania, in July 1863, Starr was
assigned as chief mustering and disbursing officer for the state of Ohio. He held this position
from November 1863 to September 1864. In the latter month he was ordered to join Sheridan’s
army in the Shenandoah Valley. From November 1864 to August 1865 he served as special
inspector of cavalry for the Armies of the Potomac and the James. In October 1865, he was
ordered with his regiment to Texas. He retired from the army in December 1870. Starr married
Eliza Kurtz in 1841. He died November 23, 1891, in Philadelphia and was buried at Arlington
National Cemetery in Washington, D.C. Samuel Starr's daughter Kate married William D. Price
of Austin, Texas, in 1866. Price served as a captain of the 1st Texas Cavalry (Union) during the
Civil War, and following the war he became a prominent lawyer and judge in Austin. He died in
1877.
