The sign neglects to mention John Wright Stanly's other son: "John Wright Stanly had another son who did not share directly in the family fortune. John Carruthers Stanly was generally acknowledged to be the son of John Wright Stanly and an enslaved African woman of the Ebo tribe. He was born into slavery, but gained his freedom at age 21 through the help of his owners, the Stewart family, who also facilitated his education and his advancement in society. Because of his first occupation, John C. Stanly became known as “Barber Jack.” After making a success of his barber shop, he went on to become a large-scale property owner and local entrepreneur, and his success in business made him one of the wealthiest men in Craven County in the early 19th century. John C. Stanly is a paradox of history: he bought his own family members out of slavery, but went on to become a slaveholder himself. He was, in fact, one of the largest slave owners in Craven County. His wife, Kitty, one of those whom he bought out of slavery, was a founding member of New Bern’s First Presbyterian Church, along with craftsman Robert Hay, whose home is also part of the Palace complex." www.tryonpalace.org/stanly_house.php See where this picture was taken.
