John Butler Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 David Josephs said, "The newspaper was founded in 1871.[1][2] It was published under the title The Evening Hour from 1895 into the 1900s, at which point it was renamed The Norwalk Hour. Some time after 1971, it became simply The Hour.[3][4] The newspaper covers local news, business, sports, and entertainment,[2] and as of April 2003, had a circulation of 16,070 I have a tough time seeing how a woman in NYC would be aware of a tiny local paper's report... and I doubt the NYTimes would mention every TIPPIT in the NE due to an occurrence in TX. https://06880danwoog.com/2013/11/24/j-d-tippit-and-jack/ is a link to an article mentioning and showing the CT Jack Tippit (sadly it's a Dale Nyers article where he attributes things to JA which he never did) Her being "from" NYC doesn't mean she was "in" NYC at the time she came "here"... to Westport, Ct where the Tippit's lived. How else would this woman know about the CT Jack Tippit unless she was in the Norwalk/Westport area to read this paper?" A couple of comments here on the Norwalk Hour. April 2003, the Norwalk Hour had a circulation of 16,070. In the 1920s and 1930s it could have had a larger circulation since most people obtained their news from a newspaper. Norwalk, Conn is directly south of Wesport, Conn and fairly close to it. Westport is about 45 miles from Yorkville, NYC. Middletown, Conn is about 100 miles from Yorkville, NYC. The FBI offices in New Haven are in-between Westport and Middletown. The Tippits, who have been very familiar with the Norwalk Hour since Jack, the cartoonist, probably would have sold cartoons to that Newspaper. David's right. One finds it hard to think that the average New Yorker would be keeping up with what's going on in the Norwalk Hour in Conn. It's best to presume that someone from that area would be familiar with the paper either as a resident or someone passing through. However, there is a third option. Someone who lived in the Connecticut area of Norwalk or at least it's circulation area read the Norwalk Hour and liked the paper. They continued to read that paper after they moved to New York in later years. I mentioned the distance between Wesport and Middletown, Conn as about 50 miles. This is thin and can be considered a long shot. The Fuhrman's lived in Middletown, Conn from 1925 to 1932. Four children were born in Connecticut. They may have developed relationships that they wanted to keep track off. I mention this as a possibility. But, the possible connection should be put out there for consideration.

FWIW John K: CRIME STOPPERS HUNTS KILLER OF STEPHEN TIPPIT FOR NEWS RELEASE: TUESDAY, APRIL 20, 1982 This week, Crime Stoppers is offering a $1,000.00 reward for information leading to the arrest and Grand Jury Indictment of the person or persons responsible for the execution style killing of Stephen Allan Tippit. Steve Tippit was murdered in the winter of 1980 and Police still do not have any solid leads in the case. On December 5, 1980, Stephen Tippit left his motorcycle shop located at 3600 South Lamar at approximately 11:00 AM. Tippit had in his possession the daily deposit from the business and had stated to employees that he was going to make the deposit at the bank, but that he was going by a friend's house first. The friend was going to show him the proper way to carry and use a . 45 caliber automatic pistol. Tippit drove to the home of Henry Johnson at 602 B Kinney Ave. where he remained for a short period of time before leaving to conduct his business. At approximately 3:00 PM employees of Tippit's motorcycle shop saw Tippit driving southbound on South Lamar in front of the shop in his yellow 1972 Volkswagen 2 door, accompanied by a white male passenger. The vehicle was headed in the direction of Oak Hill. This was the last time Stephen Allan Tippit was seen alive. On the afternoon of December 6, 1980 Steve Tippit's vehicle was found abandoned in the Westgate Mall parking lot in front of Woolco Department Store. Inside the vehicle was Tippit's wallet, bank deposit and his .45 automatic pistol. Later that same afternoon two men driving down Cooke Road in Southwest Travis County near Oak Hill found the body of Steve Tippit off to the side of the road. There appeared to be no sign of a struggle and robbery did not appear to be a motive as Tippit still had $400.00 cash on his person. Tippit seems to have been forced to get down on his knees and shot in the back of the head twice in an execution style killing. If you have any information as to who killed Stephen Tippit or can help bring some light to this case, give Crime Stoppers a call at 472-TIPS. You could earn a $1,000.00 reward if the information leads to an arrest and Grand Jury Indictment. Callers do not have to reveal their names and all calls will be kept confidenta1.

Tippit and JD Tippit? If the caller was from New York, how did she know that Jack D. Tippit lived in Westport Connecticut? The NORWALK HOUR ran a story on page one Nov 25, 1963 about their local Jack D Tippit The newspaper was founded in 1871.[1][2] It was published under the title The Evening Hour from 1895 into the 1900s, at which point it was renamed The Norwalk Hour. Some time after 1971, it became simply The Hour.[3][4] The newspaper covers local news, business, sports, and entertainment,[2] and as of April 2003, had a circulation of 16,070 That small a paper I also find it amazing that anyone outside of Norfolk would be aware of that article.... and unless it was picked up by AP or UPI there'd be no reason to have it published in NY or anywhere else for that matter.... Major newspapers are not going to list all the Jack Tippit's in the US - and even if they did... why this Jack D TIPPIT in CT? So we're back to what leads this woman to NORWALK CT's TIPPIT. As you both say, the caller never tries to say "Oswald" is anyone different than OSWALD, only that she knew his father and uncle as NYC communists.... the caller also never says that Marge is not his mother.... only the repeating of BROTHER-IN-LAW All I'm saying is to start with a fresh, blank page. That although Emil is Fred's brother-in-law we have a Marge Oswald and son at 101 San Saba in July 1947... and we KNOW this is not Lee's mother. We KNOW there are two boys/men with records claiming they are each Lee Harvey Oswald in identical locations yet at different times and with different people. We KNOW the communists were pretty powerful and free to ply their trade in the US.. Mostly creating Unions and trying to protect the workers while denigrating the owner/bosses. If we believe this woman, we KNOW Robert E Lee Oswald was not Harvey's father... but does the caller know there is a Lee and Harvey Oswald? I don't think so. To her, there was one LEE OSWALD whose father and uncle...blah, blah, blah... :-) We also know that Lee's mother had more important things than her kids on her mind... I wonder if Lee's mother didn't actually hire a woman to care for her little son while she was off doing whatever... Lee was only 5. When Lee and Mom show up at the Pic's in Sept 1952.. it IS Lee's mom and appears to have been Lee with her given what Pic says about the first few weeks... It seems it is my wife's impression that whenever there was an argument that my mother antagonized Lee towards hostility against my wife.My wife liked Lee. My wife and I had talked several times that it would be nice if Lee would stay with us alone, and we wouldn't mind having him But we never bothered mentioning this because we knew it was an impossibility. Mr. PIC - Well, prior to this particular incident, I would consider us the best of friends as far as older brother- younger brother relationship. My wife always says that he idolized me and thought quite a bit of me.Mr. JENNER - Up to this time, the relationship between you and your brother Lee, and your brother Robert, all three of you, had been a cordial normal friendly relationship that you expect to exist among brothers?Mr. PIC - That is correct, sir. And then they move to Sheridan and it goes off the rails Mr. JENNER - Then right below that is a picture of a young man standing in front of an iron fence, which appears to be probably at a zoo. Do you recognize that?Mr. PIC - Sir, from that picture, I could not recognize that that is Lee Harvey Oswald.Mr. JENNER - That young fellow is shown there, he doesn't look like you recall Lee looked in 1952 and 1953 when you saw him in New York City?Mr. PIC - No, sir.Mr. JENNER - Commission Exhibit No. 284 do you recognize anybody in that picture that appears to be Lee Oswald?Mr. PIC - No, sir.

In all of the things I have read about the Oswalds, Nancy Lee Oswald age 7, living with Marguerite and Harvey has got to be the strangest. This is out of the blue and has to be something new and unknown. Who could Nancy Lee Oswald be? Another Hungarian that Margaret was tending? A relative of the Oswalds? Could it be a mistake. In English and German the same sound is represented at a D or a T. T in German and D in English has about the same sound. Texas at one time had a large German population. Could a Nancy Lee Oswald be a Nance Lee Oswalt? That's a bit thin also. Because of the middle name Lee she could be a relative and that is more realistic than the other. This girl is associated with both Marguerites Ekdhal and Oswald. A relative could be a good guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a BIG BOY, who knows how to fight and win... not the quiet little boy who reads and keeps to himself... I think it very possible that the Marge imposter at San Saba, stayed in the south when Marguerite and Lee go to NY, or goes to NY subsequently... and it is HARVEY who returns from NY... probably with the Marge imposter.... they go to Robert's place to stay.... if Robert did actually take the Bronx zoo photo, then he knows full well HARVEY is not Lee.

They would do this for Options 1 and 3. Since there is no mention of a counter-intelligence operation I go with Option 3. "From the same comment "Mr. JENNER - Then right below that is a picture of a young man standing in front of an iron fence, which appears to be probably at a zoo. Do you recognize that?Mr. PIC - Sir, from that picture, I could not recognize that that is Lee Harvey Oswald.Mr. JENNER - That young fellow is shown there, he doesn't look like you recall Lee looked in 1952 and 1953 when you saw him in New York City?Mr. PIC - No, sir.Mr. JENNER - Commission Exhibit No. 284 do you recognize anybody in that picture that appears to be Lee Oswald?Mr. PIC - No, sir." Who then would John Pic recognize as his brother Lee Harvey Oswald? Harvey Oswald? If he does then John Pic is dead in the middle of the Oswald Project conspiracy. It is my contention that Lee Harvey Oswald (the original) is edited out of most photos. The Civil Air Patrol photo and the high school class photo are examples of Lee Oswald that had not been edited out. Both of these photos the Oswald figure has missing front teeth and must be Lee Oswald. If John Pic is not recognizing these photos as Lee Oswald then who is Lee Oswald and where can we find a picture of him? I don't know who the kid at the Bronx Zoo is. If I had to guess he would be a version of the original Lee Oswald and not Harvey. I take the Oswald in the CAP photo to be Lee Harvey Oswald: And, Lee in this classroom photo: And, If these aren't Lee then show me a photo of a young high school age Lee.

Jim Hargrove Posted December 19, 2019 Author Share Posted December 19, 2019 This may mean less than my fevered imagination is whispering to me, but soon after Fred Korth represented Edwin Ekdahl in his divorce from Marguerite, Korth’s name began appearing in Texas newspapers documenting a rather mercurial rise in political circles. The March 14, 1948 Dallas Morning News (p. 4) reported Korth had been elected as a “national committeeman” of the Young Democrats of Texas. Just four months later, on July 15, 1948, the Corpus Christi Times (p. 12) indicated Korth was campaign manager for the U.S. Senate campaign of one Lyndon Johnson of Texas. Small world!

John Butler Posted December 19, 2019 Share Posted December 19, 2019 (edited) Thanks David, I'm not familiar with the Walcott material. Fred Korth was Secretary of the Navy in 1962 and 1963. I thought John Connally was the one who rejected Oswald's plea for a dismissal of his dishonorable discharge. I don't see how this relates. Perhaps, you can explain further. You made a couple of good points here: "She may have been "from NY" but that doesn't actually mean she was living in NY at the time... It was Mrs. Tippit who suggested the newspaper article connection, not the caller.... Option 1: This is a set-up; the woman is given the number to call and a script to follow to create an even greater connection between Oswald and Communists Option 2: This is a complete crank (if so the FBI would have included it with the other batch of crank letters they published in the WCR) Option 3: It's legit and somehow this woman learns not only of JACK TIPPIT of CT but gets the phone number and comes "here" to make a local call." I like Option 3. It requires less assumptions then Option 1. I want to add to your 2 points this. The mysterious caller may not have been an elderly or a mature woman. A person's age and voice on the phone is sometimes different then what we think. A younger person may sound older and an older person may sound younger. I base this on listening to C-Span and other call in shows. At times the caller would sound, lets say older, but the age once given was of a younger person and so on. I based the earlier statement on John Pic not being able to recognize a high school photo of Lee Oswald as Lee Oswald. As far as the Bronx Zoo photo, many respected people say that is Harvey Oswald. My mind and facial recognition skills just won't go there. The only resemblance I see to Harvey is that both have earlobes. Sorry, I have to stick with what I see.

This is out of the blue and has to be something new and unknown. Who could Nancy Lee Oswald be? Another Hungarian that Margaret was tending? A relative of the Oswalds? Jim: What does John A. have to say about Nancy lee Oswald, did he find this record when he was doing his research? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Butler Posted December 19, 2019 Share Posted December 19, 2019 John K, David Josephs has answered this question earlier in a comment. "I've spoke to John about this... he also has no idea who Nancy Lee or who this ANN person is/was...." It would be interesting to know more about Nancy Lee Oswald. Lee suggests some close connection to the Oswald family. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
