    RUTGERS, THE STATE UNIVERSITY OF NEW JERSEY NEW BRUNSWICK AN INTERVIEW WITH ROBERT F. OCHS FOR THE RUTGERS ORAL HISTORY ARCHIVES OF WORLD WAR II INTERVIEW CONDUCTED BY G. KURT PIEHLER WILMINGTON, NORTH CAROLINA NOVEMBER 24, 1997 TRANSCRIPT BY JOHN NEIMAN Kurt Piehler: This begins an interview with Mr. Robert F. Ochs on November 24th, 1997 with Kurt Piehler at Wilmington, North Carolina. And I guess I’d like to begin by asking you about your parents, but also growing up. Because, in many ways, not only did you spend a lot of time in your career at Rutgers, and in the New Brunswick area, but you are … a native of the New Brunswick/Highland Park/Milltown area. And maybe we should start off with a little bit about your father, because he was born in Milltown. How did your family come to the Milltown/New Brunswick area? Robert Ochs: Well, both of my grandparents came from Germany. My mother’s family was named Ziegert and they settled in South River, New Jersey and my dad’s family, of course, was Ochs, and they actually lived in New Brunswick first. My grandfather Ochs was a shoemaker in New Brunswick, and my father’s brother started a dairy farm in Milltown, and that’s how the Milltown connection came into effect. And my mom and dad got married, and I was born in New Brunswick. In fact, on George Street, up around Remson Avenue. At about the age of six months moved to Highland Park, so that was my home ... all my life, until I came down to North Carolina.
