John appears w/ his father, William STANIFER, and mother in Hancock Co., Tn. in 1850 census, he is head of HH in 1860, 1870 & 1880 Wise Co., Va. census. The surname was spelled Stanifer until after his death when it began to take on various spellings.
I don't have further info on William b. 1788, he's been my brickwall for about 10 years now. It is thru William's youngest son, Reuben, that I found proof that our ancestor, John, was Williams son. Have a good deal of info on John's descendants. Always looking for cousins.
