Here is a marriage certificate for a Kenneth Hanson that may be relevant. The source is

Here is what might be an earlier Marriage license for Kenneth Hanson that lists him as an employee of Union Pacific Railroad as a fireman (I think that is the occupation)

and a third marriage license

 

source is

You might try to see if you can find information about the brides or the witnesses, the SSA death record of Kenneth Hanson, the obituary, and other information. If any people are still alive (spouses or children) they may be able to share more.

 

One of the sources listed for L1D5-K2V has the SSAN, which may also lead to more information.

Have you entered him into the FamilySearch database with the information you have? If you have, his ID number and full name would be helpful. Census records are a good place to start if he was born before 1940. Do you have the names of siblings and parents? Would love to help you, but need a bit more information.

Thanks for using FamilySearch Community.

Hello Iodence,

Thank you for the ID for FamilySearch.

I found the 1940 US Census for Chelan, WA, USA.

This is when he was 4 years old. Parents and siblings.
