From Paintsville stay on Rt.40 and Euclid Avenue north. Go approximately 2 2/1 miles on 40 until you come
to Rt. 1107. Turn left onto 1107 and go app. 3 miles. You pass the Thelma Post office on right. The main
road goes across a set of railroad tracks. You stay on 1107 main street past the Carl Perkins
Rehabilitation Center, Thelma Community Center and fire department. Go approximately 1 mile and the main
road crosses another set of railroad tracks. Immediately after you cross the tracks you'll see a gate on
the right side of the road. This gate leads up the hill and onto the Ochel Preston Cemetery on the right
side of the hill.
