Notes:

[R01.4.1.1.5]

He, his wife, and two grandsons are buried in Rigsbee cemetery #863-C, Wake Co NC, which was relocated.
The birthdate given on his stone is 1868-10-22, which doesn't agree with the censuses.

The grandsons are Leo 1923 and Owen 1925. I don't know which of Thomas' children they're from. I suspect Neoma. Their oldest son was Louis c1905, who is barely old enough to be the father.

They also had a daughter Dempsie 1921-06-25 d 1922-05-02.
