  Marriage license was filed in Muscatine County on Feb 26, 1904, Book 2, page 234. According to the county records, the marriage was performed in Muscatine by F. F. Beckerman and witnessed by Loretta Lightfoot, the mother of the bride. The groom, Joseph, listed his "age next birthday" as 30 but it is believed that he was born in 1876 which would make his age at the next birthday only 29. On the marriage record, Joseph listed his occupation as "Saloon Business".
 ----------------------------------------
  Joseph died in 1928 and was buried in Eau Claire, Wisconsin. Apparently, Leanna then lived her final years in Seattle, Washington near her married daughter, Avis. When Leanna died in 1957, she was buried in Seattle.
