Buffalo-Jonesboro Cemtery Industry

Buffalo-Jonesboro Cemetery Industry is a nonprofit organization overseeing the Buffalo Cemetery and Jonesboro Cemetery in Raleigh, NC. Established in 1966, the organization manages and maintains these historic burial grounds, which hold significant cultural and historical value to the community.

Buffalo Cemetery, originally affiliated with Buffalo Presbyterian Church, was taken over by the city of Sanford in the 1940s and now covers over 25 acres. Its original section is listed on the National Register of Historic Places, featuring remarkable hand-carved brownstone monuments. Jonesboro Cemetery, founded in 1886, is located in Jonesboro and was incorporated into the nonprofit organization along with Buffalo Cemetery. Both cemeteries provide traditional burial plots, cremation niches, and mausoleum spaces.
