The grave marker for young Maggie E. Sikes {11/19/1880 to 5/19/1908) is in an abandoned cemetery in a grove of trees in a field, and it is the clearest marker visible in the cemetery. (Some of the markers may not even be visible without picking up a lot of downed wood or cutting tall weeds.)

This cemetery is on private property. To keep from disturbing the landowners, I recommend that you do not go up their driveway to reach the cemetery. Instead, turn off of Missouri Secondary State Route AA at:
N36° 50.994' W93° 27.320'
at a field access; then drive up (and I do mean up) the field to the grove of trees. Be careful walking around in the trees so that you don't trip over a downed limb or a hidden grave marker. In fact, there was a deep hole near this marker.

Was the inscription legible?: Yes
