"LEON TYSON
Leon Tyson, 80, of 513 W 13th St, Davenport died at 12:34 a.m. Saturday in Mercy Hospital.
Born in Fillmore County, Minn., he married Mary Louis Adler June 29, 1907. She preceded him in death.
He was a retired employee of the Rock Island Arsenal.
He is survived by a sister, Mrs. Wenona Williams, Lawndale, Calif. and a nephew, Howard of Oswego, Calif.

He first wife was Mary Louise ADLER; Born in Wisconsin AUG 5 1873 and died JAN 27 1930 in Davenport Iowa. She was the daughter of George and Elizabeth Mueller, both German immigrants who settled in Wisconsin.

He married my Maternal Great Grandmother, Eliza ELLEN ELIZABETH LIZA C. Burtlow CONGER SKINNER, June 14, 1936. No one knows what happened to the marriage. They parted sometime in the late 1940's. She died in 1949 while living with one of her daughter's in Davenport. She is quite pointedly left out of his obit.
