My relative worked there 1919-1920 learning the trade? Also, is there a river named the Leon river?

I have an aunt by the name of Louise Hagen. She was married to August Weinke. He was a blacksmith, owned his own shop in Leon. I notice on the 1920 census that there is a Carl J. Larson, age 52, occupation laborer that is living with the family.
