Memorial Record of Western Kentucky, Volume I and Volume II, Lewis Publishing Company, 1904, pp. 152-153. Graves Co. DANIEL BOONE STANFIELD Daniel Boone Stanfield, president of the City National Bank of Mayfield, Kentucky, was born in Madison county, Tennessee, on a farm, February 28, 1849. He is a son of William B. and Nancy C. (Boone) Stanfield; the former was born in Halifax county, Virginia, and the latter in North Carolina. The paternal grandfather was an early settler of Madison county, Tennessee, where he died upon his farm. The father of our subject was reared in Madison county, Tennessee, and in Graves county, Kentucky, and then settled in the southern part of Graves county, where he farmed until 1866, when he located in Mayfield, and has since made it his home, becoming one of the leading carpenters and contractors of the city. He and his wife had two children, namely: Virginia C., who married Captain S.P. Ridgeway, of Mayfield, and Daniel B., who was nearly eighteen years of age when his parents came to Mayfield from the farm. Daniel Boone Stanfield gained a fair education in Mayfield, and later studied law and was admitted to the bar in 1870, from which time he has been one of the active practitioners in Mayfield. For a number of years he was circuit court clerk and county judge, and has always been a Democrat in politics. His banking career commenced when he became vice president of the First National Bank, after which he was made its president and continued as such for four or five years. In 1896 the City National Bank was organized, and he has acted as its president ever since, conducting its affairs with rare judgment and along conservative lines, which have firmly established it among the leading financial institutions of the county. In 1872 he was married to Mary E. Talbert, a native of Graves county. Their children are as follows: Will B., an attorney at Mayfield; Ralph N., also an attorney at Mayfield.
