Timothy was the husband of Corine Gibson. He was the son of Perry Starr and Martha Angeline Kolb. The grandson of John Starr and Susannah Parker, Jonathon Kolb and Sarah Walston.
He lived at home with his mother and took care of her until her death. He farmed, raised laying hens and sold eggs and produce in Palestine, Texas. He had several hives of bees and obtained a honey extractor to extract his own honey and for anyone else who wanted the service. He and a brother started a bakery of a sort in an old building behind their house and made salt-rising yeast bread and peddled it in Palestine. The Eilenberger Bakery in Palestine did not like the competition, so had the County Health Officer close then down. They used an old family recipe in the making of the bread.
