About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

This was originally a "colored" cemetery and most of the older burials are negros.

Mount Ayre (Buffalo Knob) Cemetery is next to what used to be known as Buffalo Knob Church. The church is currently referred to as the Mt. Ayre Church or Mt. Ayre Baptist Church. Traveling south on US Highway 61, from Bowling Green, Missouri, go to state highway WW. Turn left or east on to WW. Drive east for about 3.5 miles to county road 267. Turn left or north on to 267. The cemetery and old church will be on your left or west side about .3 miles.

In 1972 a listing of burials at this cemetery was compiled and at that time there were at least 20 graves that were marked with temporary markers that were unreadable.

Location: Prairieville Twp

Directions: 0.3 mile off State Road WW on left at Mt Ayre church

Inscription Sources: Pike Co. Mo. DAR Vol. 1 1983; FHL fiche 6104194
