Dear John,
Check out the 1880 census at http://www.familysearch.orghttp://www.familysearch.org
Your John WASLEY and family was living in Mineral Point, Iowa, Wisconsin by that date.In searching for Matthew WASLEY, the only ones were also living in Wisconsin.As the Matthew born in England about 1839 also had a son, Ulysses, I think it a rather good possibility to be your John's brother.I didn't have any luck looking for a Mark WASLEY.
In Cornwall, certainly there are lots of WASLEYs in the greater Truro area ie Chacewater, Gwennap, Kenwyn, Kea, St Agnes, etcI see them regularly when looking for my NORTHEYs.
You should also play around with freebmd which is an ever increasing database as well as many of the online Cornish censuses.WASLEY I understand also has origins in Gloucester however certainly Mineral Point was a very Cornish place.
Good luck,
Karen
