Nestled in the heart of Marshall’s museums and cultural activities, Starr Family Home State Historic Site reflects the 150-year history of the noted Starr family in Texas. The home, Maplecroft, was built by Frank, son of James Harper Starr, first president of the Board of Land Commissioners and later secretary of the treasury for the Republic of Texas. The site consists of seven structures housing artifacts and collections, including original books, clothing, furniture, and portraits of Starr family members from the late 19th century.
