Directions:  Cabool Missouri is 70 miles east of Springfield and 60 miles south of Rolla at the junction of highways 60 and 63. Traveling south from Cabool on Hwy 181 in Texas County turn west on EE.  It is a good black top road. You will enter Douglas County and in a short distance you will cross over the North Fork of the White River. A very short distance on the left is road 157 and a sign saying Fairview Cemetery. This is a gravel road.  Go about one mile.  You will see another Fairview Cemetery sign.  Turn left again onto another gravel road.  In a short distance you will see a fork in the road. Look to your left and you will see the gate with the Fairview Cemetery sign on it.  Do not go to the crossroad or you will have passed the cemetery.  Photos of landmarks are also included.
