Father: Isaac STANLEY, (son of Joseph Jesse STANLEY), b. ABT 1768, Pittslyvania County Virginia
This is based on ancestral file at Family Search for Nancy Stanley in Pittslyvania Virginia where both Nancy and Josiah are thought to be born. Isaac Stanley and Frances Nash are married after Nancy is born if the ancestral file is correct, a pretty big sin in Puritan Virginia for which they tortured the hell out of people in the courts and everything else. I have to wonder about Nancy's birth date or her parents marriage date if only because Virginia courts are full of wrath for this but it is possible.
