Stanard Buffington McCullough was the youngest of four children born to Julius W. McCullough (1843-1883) and his wife Mary Ann Page Capps McCullough (1853-1933) of Huntington, Cabell Co., WV. His father was from a prominent Cabell Co. family and captained steamboats on the Ohio and Mississippi Rivers before health and family obligations compelled him to find work in Huntington as a grocer and later as a clerk for the C&O Railroad. Stanard's mother was the daughter of a steamboat captain from Washington, St. Landry Parish, LA.
Stanard married twice. He married Olive Roach on December 3, 1905. She died in 1954 and Stanard then married Ada Katherine Davis Gatens who survived him. There were no children from either marriage.
