John and Harriet Jane moved to Sullivan, Wisconsin sometime in 1845/46, about the same time as Moffats, but left for Iowa before 1850.

In the 1860 U.S. Census, the census taker for Sweetland Township, Muscatine County, Iowa, reported that the family "Removed before visited." Never-the-less, he reported the following information which must have been obtained from neighbors. John was listed as a 35 years old laborer living with his 35 years old wife Jane and children: Charlotte, age 13; Newcomb, age 12; Bradford, age 10; Alman, age 2; and 3/12 year old Samuel Robert Baxter.

They were listed as sharing a dwelling with her sister and brother-in-law, Eliza and L. G. Moffat and their two children, 10 years old Albert and 2 years old Amelia Moffat.
Living next to John and Harriet Baxter was 34 years old Alpheus Baxter, his 33 years old wife Catherine, and their children: Abram, age 10; Charlotte, age 4; and 2 years old James Baxter. Alpheus was either a brother or a cousin of John Baxter. John and Alpheus were both born in New York, and one child of each was born in Iowa within one year of each other. It may be that Harriet Jane and Catherine were half sisters.
In the 1870 U.S. Census, John Baxter was listed as a 46 years old farmer with $1500 worth of real estate and $900 worth of personal property, living in Colfax, Dunn County, Wisconsin, with his 44 years old wife Jane Baxter and their three children: 18 years old Bradford Baxter; 13 years old Almund Baxter; and 9 years old Robert Baxter.
