In 1887, Stansberry was pastor of the Mt. Pisgah Church in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
By 1907, he was an African Methodist Episcopal (AME) presiding elder in Philadelphia.
By 1916, he was pastor of the Bridge Street AME Church in Brooklyn, New York.
He held a Doctor of Divinity degree.
We suspect he may be John B. Stansberry (1844–1918), who is buried in Bala Cynwyd, Pennsylvania.
