Directions:

From Bolivar take TN 18 south for about ten miles. In Hickory Valley turn right
onto Ames Road. Cemetery is on the right side after another three miles. 

On the map it looks like the burial site is located right next to the Hardeman/Fayette
County line, where Ames Road changes its name to Elliot Drive, both names appearing on
the grave markers, though in a slightly different spelling.
