I don't have a map, but I have a copy of the Cass Co. Genealogical Society's transcription, and George and Lavina are buried at the beginning of Row 16 (out of 23 rows total). There is also a William D. Dazell, age 20, died in 1877, buried at the beginning of Row 17.
The cemetery entrance is on the north, and the rows run north to south. My recollection is that the CCGS transcriber numbered the rows from east to west (so Row 1 is the first row on the east edge). Based on that, Row 16 would be in the middle, I think just a few rows west of the access road you'll drive in on. I definitely know that Row 13 is the row on your left (east) as you drive in the cemetery entrance access road. Row 16 should be just a few rows over to the right/west of the access road.
The stone numbering within each row goes from north to south, so their stones are at the very north end of Row 16 next to the fence.
I've walked and photographed most of the cemetery, and likely have a photo of their stone that I just haven't had time to get online at Iowagravestones yet. However, the CCGS has photos of all the gravestones in Wiota Jameson online at www.findagrave.com. I just checked and you can view photos of their stones there.
Hope that helps!
