No real answer to your question, but maybe these census locations will help you turn up more information.

In 1880 Seth B Brown was already living in Farmington, Republic, Kansas, so they were probably married in Kansas.

It appears on image as if the census taker began to record native tongue for the family as Norwegian and then crossed it out as not needed. Or this may have been added at a later time, as it looks to be written with a much lighter pen or pencil.
