The Stukey Cemetery is reached by taking Highway 63 south from Kirksville to the Airport Road, thence west for one
mile.
The Noah Stukey family settled the land where the cemetery is located in 1840 or 1841. Noah Stukey was a judge of the
County Court in very early days. One acre was donated by his family for the cemetery. The earliest grave appears to be
1845.
For several generations families staked out their own plots. Maintenance was done over the years; periodically, by
individuals and small groups, and sometimes the cemetery became weed and brush choked. About 15 years ago Dr.
Grove Stukey, grandson of the original owner, called meetings, helped raise money for an endowment, and worked to
have the cemetery incorporated to assure perpetual care. Dr. Stukey died in October 1980 at the age of 93.
This information was furnished by Dr. Grover Stukey, nephew of the Dr. Grover Stukey mentioned above.
