The "Covington" residence of William Oswald (Great-Grandfather to LHO) was, due to anti-german sentiment, burned during WWI. (Thomas Purvis)

Tom,

Regarding William Oswald, I believe he had a nephew also named William Oswald.

BTW, do you know anything about a Julius J. Oswald who worked at the Standard Coffee Co. in New Orleans?

James

Actually, there were many "William Oswald's"

Mostly cousins, etc.

William Oswald, father of Robert E. Lee Oswald (Sr.) and grandfather to LHO, also had a son named William who also lived in New Orleans as well.

In addition, there was Thomas Oswald, and Harvey Oswald, as well as Robert and William.

Therefore, there were four sons to continue generation of the Oswald name.

The son of William worked at Reilly Coffee Company (aka Standard Coffee aka Luzianne Coffee).

This is the reference which LHO gave on his employment application. (Hazel Oswald, widow of William Oswald, and whom LHO visited)

Little is known of the "Julius" Oswald, as well as the other female Oswald who worked at Reilly.

Someone was supposed to have checked into this long ago, but has never gotten back to me in regards to whom Julius was descended from.

Thanks, Tom.

I did some checking and the William Oswald in question was William S. Oswald. His uncle was also William S. Oswald and both were from Metairie in New Orleans. The younger William said that his uncle had received a visit from Lee Harvey during the summer of 1963.

As to Julius J. Oswald, he was supposedly to have met with Jim Garrison but I have no idea what transpired there.

FWIW.

BTW, do you know who this is below? He is either William Oswald or he is related to Donald Norton somehow.

Correct!

William S. Oswald (Sr), husband of Hazel Oswald, was a direct Uncle of LHO, and William S. Oswald (Jr.) of Reily Coffee Co, was first cousin of LHO. Hazel lived at 136 Elmer St. in Metarie

Garrison initially indicated an interest in following the "family tree" of LHO, but for some reason then completely dropped the issue.

James,

How is William Oswald related to Donald Norton (somehow)? How in the world does the name Donald Norton fit into all of this?
