Per toeval kwam Charles te weten dat de hoeve ook een naam had. Een vroegere bewoonster, mevr. Desaever (in 1983 was ze al in de 80 jaar oud) wist hun te vertellen per brief dat de boerderij de naam 'de Sterre' droeg. Charles is zich daarin wat gaan verdiepen... en ja hoor. De boerderij bestaat al sinds eeuwen.
