The cemetery is located in Elliott County, on a ridge above Sinking Creek
(near Tar Kiln Creek and Cave) between Limestone and Gimlet, KY.  From
Olive Hill, take US 60 West to Kentucky 174.  Turn left (west) on KY 174
and follow it to Limestone.  At the Limestone Apostolic Church, turn left
on KY 1620 and follow it for 2.7 miles.  At that point, make a very sharp
left turn (almost 180 degrees) and follow the gravel road up the hill for
0.5 mile.  Turn left (at about a 45 degree angle) into the lane and the
cemetery will be approximately 100 yards ahead.  (Making a very sharp left
turn from the gravel road into the lane will lead you to the Conn
cemetery.)

From the entrance to the Tabor Cemetery, the graves are laid out
approximately as follows:
