Iinteresting note: this says John House Usher came to America in 1840, while his father came in 1833. Of course, it may not be correct).(Also: useful for John H.'s whereabouts between WI and IA, as it lists his son Francis as having been born in WI in 1851.)

I don't see a passenger list to NYC for 1833 containing John Usher, J Usher or even Usher, but you could order the microfilms from the National Archive, which should contain his name & the exact ship. With that, you could learn more online (about the ship, the voyage, possible journals of other passengers, etc.):
