Norfolk Journal and Guide, July 10,1943
Norfolk - Funeral services for Miss Neolus O. Bailey, who died June 26, 
after an illness of two months, were held June 29, at the First Baptist 
Church, Bute Street, where she was a member. The pastor, the Rev. R. H. 
Bowling eulogized the young college student. She was the daughter of Mr. and 
Mrs. John F. Bailey of 2725 Broad Creek road.

Miss Bailey had completed two years of college work at Hampton Institute and 
had just begun her junior year when she was stricken with the illness which 
proved fatal. She began her early training in the public school system of 
Hampton, during which time she studied music under her aunt, Mrs. Neolus 
Bailey Pierce, but completed both elementary and high school work in 
Norfolk, her native city.

During four years in high school she was a member of the choral club and the 
Con-ge-ne-mill Quartet. She entered Hampton in 1941, and was a member of the 
Colliope Literary Society, the Student Council, and the Hampton Choir. 
Gifted with a naturally congenial disposition the young student gained many 
friends of the institute.

Besides her parents and aunt, she is survived by two brothers, John Jr., and 
James Bailey; a sister, Miss Marion L. Bailey; two other aunts, Misses 
Louise and Lillian Bailey of Hampton; and two uncles, George Bailey of 
Hampton and James A. Bailey of New York, NY.
