I tried the reduced blanking modeline, but the 1920x1080 format persisted. 
So I then replaced the display port cables with the cables labelled "DP 
V1.2" supplied by iiyama with the monitors.  This fixed the problem. I now 
have 2560x1440R on two iiyama monitors.  I was most agreably surprized 
that the nouveau driver automatically placed DP-2 to the right of DP-1 to 
form a 5120x1440 surface.  Very polished execution by nouveau!

Thanks for your help, Roger
