has June 1861, and headstone reads Jun 23 1861, which would coincide with age at time 
marriage.

(8) 1930 Census, Doddridge County, WV (Cove District), No other reference to her by

provides name as Vicky Stansbury, while obituary of daughter Mary gives it as Vicey 
Stansberry, her marriage record and the obituaries of husband and daughter Hannah give it 
as Vicy Stansberry, and obituary of half-sister Dona Stansberry Kincaid gives it as Vicie 
Stansberry Huff.  Her own obituary identifies her as Mrs. Vicy S. Huff, daughter of the 
late Frank and Evelyn Clayton Stansberry.  Her mother has elsewhere been incorrectly 
identified as Louie Daugherty, but her survivors included seven half-siblings, so the 
confusion stems from the 1890 remarriage by her father.
