Lars family/Legends

The Lars family is a family that lives primarly on the planet of Tatooine. The earliest known member of the Lars family is Cliegg Lars. With his first wife, he had a son named Owen. After his wife's death, he remarried Shmi Skywalker, whom he freed from slavery. Owen married a girl named Beru Whitesun.

When Anakin Skywalker became Darth Vader, his son, Luke Skywalker was cared for by Owen and his wife, whom he called "Uncle Owen" and "Aunt Beru." They were killed by Imperial Stormtroopers in Star Wars: A New Hope.
