James Stacy Betton, Cabot VT 1830

I am trying to determine if the "James S. Betton" who appears on the Caledonia County, VT, 1830 census, in Cabot, is the James Stacy Betton who was the husband of Mary Weatherspoon and the father of my Almira Betton who married Calvin P. Farnsworth. The very scant information I have is that James died in 1833, and had gone to Vermont [probably from New Hampshire or perhaps Massachusetts]. One of Almira's sisters, Roxana, married Dr. Jabez Fisher of Fitchburg, MA, and they became the guardians of Almira's daughter, Emily Frances Farnsworth, after both of the parents had died.

Are there any cemetery records for Cabot, VT, that could possibly list James Stacy Betton, died 1833 and/or his wife Mary (Weatherspoon) Betton, death date unknown?

I have not been able to identify the parents of Mary Weatherspoon. She supposedly was born in Londonderry [NH? or VT?] I'd like to learn who her parents were and what became of her after the premature death of her husband at the age of about 34. Listed right after James S. Betton on the 1830 census in Cabot was a John Weatherspoon, with a male age 50/60 who would be the right age to be Mary's father. Was he? I will be grateful for any help on this line. Thanks.
