On the 1880 Census Milton Lansberry said his father was born in Virginia, and his mother was born in New Jersey. The 1850 record is probably the more accurate record since Rachel would have been able to say where she was born. Alexander Buchanan lived in both states.

Before 1820 the surname was spelled various ways: Lansby, Landby, Langsby. About 1820 the name became Lansberry, Landsberry, Langsberry or Lansbury.

Beginning in 1825 James Lansberry is no longer listed on the Woodford Co KY tax lists.
