James Thacker does not have a typical tree stump headstone. His headstone stands on a double base, and has a horizontal log at the top of the headstone. The Woodmen of the World seal is engraved on an arched panel, together with the "gates of heaven". The surname THACKER is engraved on the upper base.

The inscription is engraved on a flat surface beneath the seal. It reads:

James Allen
Son of
H. E. & P. Thacker
Jan. 19, 1895
Sept. 28, 1917

The heart's keen anguish only those can tell
Who've bid the dearest and best farewell
