Help Locating/IDing a cemetery?

I'm looking for a little help locating some family graves in St Francis Co. I have been looking for my GGgrandparents, John and Martha Stewart, for a while now and I was just told they are most likely buried on the family farm.

This is the best description I was able to get out of my 92 year old great aunt, remember, these are from 75 year old memories, and she is the only person still alive from down there...

The Farm was owned by Charlie Stewart, son of Martin Lucius Stewart. It was located on the road between Widener, where my G grandparents, Martin's brother George, lived, and Memphis. From Widener, you would cross the bridge at Burnt Cane Lake(within walking distance of bridge also) the road to Round Pond turned off to the left. The house was up on a hill maybe a half mile off of the road. There was also a country school house the kids went to right on the road, again within walking distance.

Anyone who knows the area or thinks they can identify this farm I would really appreciate the help. I plan on visiting the area this summer and need to do the locating and hopefully get permission to visit before that date if at all possible.

Thanks for you time!!
Ken Stewart
