Summary  
The documents detail FBI investigations into individuals linked to Robert F. Kennedy’s assassination, focusing on Edward Van Antwerp and Saul Sirian (Sirhan Sirhan). Mrs. Anna Jeanne Van Antwerp reported her husband, Edward Van Antwerp, last worked at Thermal Chemistry in Chino, California, on June 4, 1968, and was later believed to be staying near Joshua Tree, California. The FBI sought his location through family contacts, including sister Genevieve Taylor and brother Jack Van Anywerp. Saul Sirian, an Arab student at Pasadena City College in 1964, was last seen at Santa Anita Race Track in Arcadia, California, in February 1968, working as a groom. Witnesses described him as intelligent but anti-Jewish, with limited political engagement. The FBI interviewed Ghaler Mohammad Badran, who met Sirian at the International Club in 1963 and noted his quiet demeanor. Additional interviews included Davor Pevec, John Shear, Robert Wheeler, Mrs. Constance Prestwood, and Jerry Morris, detailing Sirian’s transient employment at racetracks and ranches.
