This may be a tough mystery to solve. Some additional clues to mention would be that Susan lived 1797-1886 and Calvin 1793-1838. Calvin died at age 45. Did Susan adopt a child to help her at home?
You might try searching for this family in the Iowa, State Census Collection, 1836-1925. It would be possible to find Calvin shortly before his death, or Susan until her death. If they have a child/children living with them, you might find additional names to research.
