Vermont watchman and State journal. (Montpelier, Vt.), 05 April 1882: "Burglars entered the residence of Mrs. Governer John S Robinson at Center Bennington Thursday night, and took $95 and a draft for $400 from the pantaloons of Reuben F. Staniford, Mrs. Robinson's brother. Mr. Staniford was visiting on his way to Virginia from his home in Burlington."
From 1837, Reuben managed a farm on Appletree Point in Burlington, which was owned by his parents. When his mother died, the property passed to him. He sold the farm in 1872, and moved with his family to North Avenue in Burlington. At that time, he was married to a woman named Fidelia or Adelia.
Reuben died in Virginia at the home of his daughter, Mary J (Mrs. Thomas Nase). From the Burlington Weekly Free Press (Burlington, Vermont) November 4, 1887: "The remains of the late Reuben Staniford, who died about two years ago in Virginia were interred in Elmwood cemetery Saturday Morning."
