I grew up in this one room school house. My father and mother Allard Mullins and Belva Mullins purchased it in 1964. Me and my sisters Karen Sue and Patty Ann grew up here. The little house behind it was removed sometime in the eighties or early nineties. In 2015 we updated the inside my wife and I have moved back into it for our retirement years.

This property was owned by my great uncle, John Morgan Horne (pronounced Horn), who donated the land to the Greenup County School System for the building of Starr School Elementary. My father and brother attended Starr School. It is my understanding that William Sherman "Sherman" Bentley, who owned Bentley's General Store, supplied the materials for the school. Sherman's daughter, a former student of my aunt's at Starr, took over the teaching duties when my brother began school there as my aunt did not feel it proper for her to have her own nephew as a pupil in a formal classroom setting.
