1880 U.S. census is at LDS site (www.familysearch.org).
Other U.S Census records should give an idea of age and where they were born. You can use Ancestry to search for them in census but can't view the details unless you have a subscription.
Away sorting out DNA matches... I may be gone for some time many years!

 - their marriage is registered here in 1868 (plus some marriages of the children). No parental information, though.
