John Sikes was my three time great grandfahter. I have a drawing of him that has been passed down in the family. You will find John Sikes death certificate on Missouri Digital Heritage #2549. The death certificate list his father as Dempsey Sikes being born in Wales England. Dempsey was born in Camden NC as well as his wife Charlotte Chamberlain. It is believed they were Cherokee. Spelling of the Sikes name can be found as Sikes/Sykes/Dykes/Skiles/Silkes ect. I have been researching this family for a very long time. John Sikes and his wife Martha Jane Snow Sikes are buried in the Knob Lick Cemetery. There son the Rev. Marion Sikes is also buried in Knob Lick Cemetery but Marion's wife Minnie Lee Moyer Sikes is buried next to my Aunt Helen C Sikes in the IOOF cemetery in Bismarck MO. We would visit this cemetery often when I was a child and I do have photos. I was told of their heritage by my parents and grandparents. My pappy John's grandson George Washington Sikes said his grandmother Martha Snow's God was what he believed in. He said that is why her son Marion wrote the song "When Mother Prayed." He told me grandma Martha had a direct line to the her God for when she prayed mountains could be moved. If you have any questions you can email me at [email protected]
