They appear in the 1850 U.S. census in Clinton, Mass., along with son James (age 0) and Hugh Lyon (age 13).  In the 1860 census, they are in Lewiston, Maine.  In 1870, they are back in Massachusetts.

Are you looking for some specific info re their location?  You can track them through the censuses on familysearch if you don't have access to a paid service.
