Josephus Stokes, 68, died Wednesday at Blue Ridge Nursing home after a long illness.
The News and Observer (Raleigh, North Carolina) · 15 Aug 1968, Thu · Page 15

Graveside services for Josephus Stokes, 68, of 5100 Holly Springs Rd., who died Wednesday, will be held today at 3 pm at the city cemetery.
The News and Observer (Raleigh, North Carolina) · 16 Aug 1968, Fri · Page 9

Josephus Stokes was born January 1, 1899 and died August 4, 1968.

A partial "walk through" of the cemetery was done in August, 2007, to read headstones and confirm or correct errors of record. This is a work in progress which may never be completely finished. Lost or destroyed records, conflicting birth and death dates, and misspelled names are some of the stumbling blocks. Additional research will be undertaken and we invite readers to contribute their personal records of City Cemetery Burials.
