John married Alice Ann Martin 19 Jan 1873. John borrowed $300 from a family member, and he and his wife moved to Kansas City. While he initially was a farmer, by 1895 he was working as a live stock dealer.

He had 2 sons, the oldest being Roy B. Standish, b. 1882. I could not find when and where Roy died or where he is buried. Roy worked as live stock trader and lived with his family for a while before moving to Denver, Colorado and working in the live stock yards there. As best as I can tell, Roy had 3 wives: Mary Bell Russell, Myrtle L. Standish, and Claire C. Guinotte. Family information is that Roy had no children.

John's other son, Miles first worked as a salesman for Standard Oil company, then as a Manager, then as a Regional Manager. He married Olive I. Brooks. Family information is that he had no children.

John I. Standish worked for Charles Dixon Commission Company, which I believe was a live stock company.

John I. Standish was a direct descendant of Capt. Myles Standish of the Mayflower.
