Re: He was buried in July 1748 in Dartmouth, Bristol County, Massachusetts.

Ben M. Angel notes: On the above, no explanation on the 28 year interval between death and burial, nor apparently any numbered references for the burial date (what source identified 1748 as a burial date, rather than closer to 1720?). Also, the numbered references are not listed for the other basic information. Further, the burial location couldn't be confirmed elsewhere (Find A Grave doesn't have this Thomas Tabor listed) and is not really specified other than the name of town, which is the same as the death location.
