Understanding the Nature of Stellar Chemical Abundance Distributions in Nearby Stellar Systems

Since stars retain signatures of their galactic origins in their chemical compositions, we can exploit the chemical abundance distributions that we observe in stellar systems to put constraints on the nature of their progenitors. In this thesis, I present results from three projects aimed at underst...
