Well, Komilia Sterling served with Gryphon directly in Eight-Ball Squadron during the Golden Age, Therese was a crew chief for the Eight-Balls, and Maia and Miranda were members of the Nazgul intelligence squadron, so they also worked closely with him back in the day. So Kaname's got at least one to two degrees of separation between her and the Hutchins family conglomeration, coming along whenever her parents and aunts get invited to any family parties.

While the Sterling Siblings all have wide and varied lifestyles across the known galaxy, Miranda Sterling and her husband Thade decided to settle down in New Avalon while raising Kaname and her sister through the grade school years. Mind, they still are active members of Mars Division, so are sometimes out on assignment, but enough relatives-of-wedge-defenders from the old days live in New Avalon that they felt comfortable leaving their progeny there unattended if needed.
