Per my research on Ancestry, Wm Joseph Youngblood's birth date is April 1870. He is on a July 11, 1870 census with his parents and sibling at age 3 months, so that is how I figured his birth date as April 1870. If the tombstone's birth date for him is correct - Oct 4, 1860, it would conflict with his mother's birth date and age at her son's birth - she could not have been 8 yrs old when she had a child. Oct 4, 1860 is too early for Martha to have her son William if she was born 1852. The April 1870 birth date for William fits better and is confirmed by the 1870 Census.
His parents were William J. Youngblood and Martha Jane Loftis.
Thank you to Beverly Joe Vaughn for getting the photos of Wm Joe Youngblood and his wife Julie.
