Summary:  
The documents detail fragmented FBI investigations into potential suspects linked to civil rights-era activities in Missouri and Tennessee during 1968. Key cases include searches for individuals named Harvey Loweyers (variations: LOHMEYER, LOWEYER) across Missouri counties, A.J. Consolino’s motel stay in Memphis with a Ford Galaxy license plate, and Kenneth E. Hunt’s van leasing records. These investigations span April 1–15, 1968, involving FBI divisions (Springfield, Memphis), Missouri law enforcement, credit bureaus, and military personnel records. Separate efforts focused on Eric Starvo Galt and related names in St. Louis, including checks into barge industry records, dance schools, phone directories, and union files. No direct links to Martin Luther King Jr. or the assassination investigation are present in these documents.
