I have relatives James H. Brown and his wife, Elizabeth Ann "Betsey" (Copp) Brown that lived most of their young married life in Henderson Co. IL, then moved to Burlington, Des Moines Co., IA in their mid-50s. They both died and were buried in Burlington (specifically, Aspen Grove Cemetery). Finding obituaries for either one of them has proved difficult. Here is what I know about them:

James H. Brown: b. 11 Aug 1803 in Stanstead, Quebec, Canada; d. 30 Nov 1884 in Burlington, Des Moines Co., IA; bur. in Aspen Grove Cem., Burlington, Des Moines Co., IA

Elizabeth Ann "Betsey" Copp: b. 25 Apr 1807 in Stanstead, Quebec, Canada; d. 9 Jul 1882 in Burlington, Des Moines Co., IA; bur. in Aspen Grove Cem., Burlington, Des Moines Co., IA

They were married 27 Feb 1827 in Stanstead, Quebec, Canada, and had 11 or 12 children - many of whom also resided in and around the Burlington area.
