John,

Your tubes should be marked with the operating voltage on one end or the
other. If they're like most modern LED replacements, they'll be set to work
at 120 volts on one end. All you have to do is wire the lamp power hot and
neutral to one tombstone.

You could always open up one of your old fixtures and see what you did with
it.
