I found him, his wife and one child in the 1910 census in Dawson, Phelps County, MO. His last name was Lenburger then.
Peter 65 Sweden
Maggie 52 Kentucky
Leo W 19, IowaI also found this post, which says his last name was originally Johnson:
"Peter Lenburg from Sweden (name changed from Johnson because he was not getting mail from Sweden) married Malinda (Maggie) Bray. Children were Leoma Lenburg b 1880 in Molton Iowa and Leo Wilbur Lenurg b 1/20/1891 also Molton Iowa. Leoma (Hulda) married E. T. England, LEo married Clara Lillian Ohlrogge. Leo had two children: Norman Forest Lenburg & Alma Lenburg-Payne. Leo was div and married twice more. He died in Tampa Fla.(Hernando Fla.) He ran the family bakery in Brooksville, Fla. with first wife Clara. My 89 yr old mother is E. T. England's Niece. Seek contact with living members of E. T. England's direct family to exchange info."

Also:
My G-Grand parents were Maggie Bray-Lenburg & Peter Lenburg. His name was changed from Johnson to Lenburg before he married. We believe it was changed while he lived in Iowa. My 88 yr old mother sez that she was told the name Lenburg may be from a lawyer that did the paper work. The reason for the name change was because of multiple Peter Johnson's in area.
