Text of Marker on side of building:
ANNA BIXBY TRAILThis point marks the beginning of an early trail traveled by Anna Hobbs Bixby Mid-wife and herb doctor, while caring for the sick in the Rock Creek Community, 8 miles northeast of here. A century before recognition was given by the American Medical Society, Anna made the discovery that white snakeroot was the cause of an epidemic of milk-sickness which ravaged the area round 1830.
