Let G = (V,E) be a connected graph. Let c be a proper coloring using k colors, namely 1, 2,·s, k. Let <span style="font-family: symbol;">P</span>={S<sub>1</sub>, S<sub>2</sub>,..., S<sub>k</sub>} be a partition of V(G) induced by c and let S<sub>i</sub> be the color class that receives the color i. The color code, c<sub><span style="font-family: symbol;">P</span></sub>(v)=(d(v,S<sub>1</sub>), d(v,S<sub>2</sub>),...,d(v,S<sub>k</sub>)), where d(v,S<sub>i</sub>)=min {d(v,x)|x <span style="font-family: symbol;">Î</span> S<sub>i</sub>} for i <span style="font-family: symbol;">Î</span> [1,k]. If all vertices in V(G) have different color codes, then c is called as the \emphlocating-chromatic k-coloring of G. Minimum k such that G has the locating-chromatic k-coloring is called the locating-chromatic number, denoted by <span style="font-family: symbol;">c</span><sub>L</sub>(G). In this paper, we discuss the locating-chromatic number for n certain amalgamation of stars linking a path, denoted by nS<sub>k,m</sub>, for n ≥ 1, m ≥ 2, k ≥ 3, and k>m.
