Jesse Sawyer burial site

I am looking for any information (not in the database for DeWitt County) on a Jesse E. Sawyer. Jesse was born in NY about 1800-1820. He moved to Ohio, where he married Melissa Ann Knapp on 17 Nov. 1839. He moved to DeWitt County sometime in 1842 between the birth of a son, Lucian E., born in Ohio, January 1842 and a daughter Harriet Louisa, b. 11 Jan. 1843 in DeWitt County. He also had another daughter born to this marriage, Almina Ann, b. June 1846 in DeWitt County, IL. Jesse died in DeWitt County in May of 1850.

Jesse apparently followed relatives to DeWitt, in that, there was a William E., Titus, (maybe brothers of Jesse) and others. William E. died 1 Nov. 1849 and is burried in the McCord Cemetery, near Fullerton, Section 15 - DeWitt Township, DeWitt County. I believe that Jesse could be buried in this cemetery also and maybe close to William. If anyone visits this cemetery and can check this out, it would be greatly appreciated.
