(Testimony of Hiram Conway)

Mr. Conway.
Well, I didn't know. He married a girl in New York City and I believe I believe my wife told me that Mrs. Oswald told her that she was going to New York on account of John being there. After John left, I didn't have much contact with them at all. because John was my contact with them.
Mr. Jenner.
Do you recall whether Robert was still with the family when Mrs. Oswald picked up and left? Or had he also entered the service?
Mr. Conway.
That, I don't recall.
Mr. Jenner.
You would be very helpful to us, if you would give us the names of some children at or about his age, who are still around this vicinity, whom you think might recall him.
Mr. Conway.
What year did you say he was born in?
Mr. Jenner.
1939, October 18.
Mr. Conway.
1939
Mr. Jenner.
If he were alive, he would be approaching 25 years of age---this would be his 24th year and he would be 25 years old next October.
Mr. Conway.
Well, I have discussed it with the Masseys, they live across the street.
Mr. Jenner.
Give me their full name and address and telephone number, if you will?
Mr. Conway.
And they don't remember it. It is H. R. Massey. What I was fixing to say, I was trying to eliminate the neighborhood house by house. The Masseys don't remember--I don't believe Barbara Anne does, Barbara Anne would be their daughter and she is approximately his age, but I heard her say that she didn't remember him at all.
Mr. Jenner.
Is Barbara Anne living with her folks?
Mr. Conway.
No, sir; she's married now. I don't know what her last name is.
Mr. Jenner.
Well, maybe I could find out from her mother, Mr. and Mrs. H. R. Massey.
Mr. Conway.
[Spelling] M-a-s-s-e-y.
Mr. Jenner.
And they live across the street from you?
Mr. Conway.
That's right--they live at 7425 Ewing.
Mr. Jenner.
Do I have your permission to talk with Mrs. Conway?
Mr. Conway.
Oh, yes; I suggested that she come with me and save a trip.
Mr. Jenner.
Yes, that would have been nice.
Mr. Conway.
I don't know why she wouldn't but she knows what she wants to do.
Mr. Jenner.
I probably would like to have her come down tomorrow, if she is free, tomorrow afternoon.
Mr. Conway.
Well, my wife's brother passed away last week, and it has been a considerable shock to her and she is on tranquilizers and her memory isn't as good as it would be if she wasn't in such a strain.
Mr. Jenner.
Well, you mention it to her when you-get home and I'll call out home sometime tonight?
Mr. Conway.
All right,
Mr. Jenner.
And we will leave it up to her?
Mr. Conway.
I'm sure she would be glad to do all she could.
Mr. Jenner.
Can you think of any others?
Mr. Conway.
The Turners, they just live---oh, Bill Bridges would be the age of John Pic. He was just another one of the kids in the neighborhood that I taught to play chess at the same time, but he was older and there was no other children in that range, and John is as old as my daughter.
Mr. Jenner.
Well, I might talk with him on the telephone.
Mr. Conway.
I don't know where he lives. He is with Halliburton, I believe, and when he is in town he comes by to see me, too.
Mr. Jenner.
Is that Halliburton, Tex.?
Mr. Conway.
No; that's Halliburton Oil Co. I don't know where the home office is.
Mr. Jenner.
Have you seen him around Fort Worth?
Mr. Conway.
Bill?
Mr. Jenner.
Yes.
Mr. Conway.
The last time I saw him he came to my house and brought his family and it's been quite a little while ago.
