Hi Justin,

Is your keyboard a US english standard keyboard?  Did you verify that the 
operating system keyboard is also set to US english in the Debian system 
settings?
https://wiki.debian.org/Keyboard

If your operating system keyboard settings are correct, it is still a VNC 
or Xkeybord issue, can you try setting the Xkeyboard default keyboard to US 
keyboard via terminal command line "setxkbmap us", where "us" would be US 
for US keyboard :
https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/458680/cant-change-keyboard-layout-inside-vncserver

Per the manual page, if the configuration is not the same on the client and 
the server, you can have keyboard mapping issues.  I suggest reading the 
note at the bottom of the manual regarding xkbcomp on the client side:
*setxkbmap us -print | xkbcomp - $DISPLAY*

I don't use VNC, but I think that should point you in the right direction.  
Please let me know if that helps
