John was from Shenandoah County but worked in Detroit, Michigan, when he met his wife. When he registered for the World War II draft in 1940, he lived with her in Detroit and worked for the U.S. Rubber Company there.

The 1950 census found the couple living in the Stonewall District of Shenandoah County where John was a farmer and Mavis was raising two sons, John W. and Richard A. Burner.
