@Clifford Alan Sisson--marriage record for Leonard and Christina is available at https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.3.1/TH-267-12060-22873-57?cc=1452....  It gives his parents' names, etc. (If the link doesn't take you directly there, start at familysearch.org/search/.)

If you follow him through the censuses, you can see he lived:

1900--Grand Ledge, MI (Children Vera M. 5 and Thelma L. 11mo.)  all b MI

1910--Humbird, Bonner, Idaho (Children M Vera 15, L Thelma 10, and M Marshall 2.  Marshall b. Idaho.  Leonard and Chrissie m. 18 yrs, 4 children, 3 still living.  His parents were also there, H. Charles 62, b MI and E. Mary 57, b. NJ, m. 43 yrs. 2 children, 2 still living. 

1930--Seattle, King, WA.  Leonard 64, widowed and Marshall 24.

Leonard's death info at https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/N35P-DC3, although record is not viewable but you should be able to obtain from the county.
