William A "Bill" Newsom Sr was born in 1902 in San Fracisco.  He was a general contractor who built homes in the Bay area. He was also a confidant of Edward G "Pat" Brown (1905-96), Governor of California 1958-66.  Bill had hired Pat as his attorney, but later convinced him to run for San Francisco district attorney.

Bill married a Miss Addis.
  
There is reported in the ''Oakland Tribune'', 19 Oct 1933 under S.F. Deaths "William A Newsom".  That's it, no age, no obit, just a name.  This could possibly be him or perhaps his father or uncle.

There is reported in the ''Oakland Tribune'', 19 Oct 1933 under S.F. Deaths "William A Newsom".  That's it, no age, no obit, just a name.  This could possibly be his father or uncle.  It cannot be *him* because I've found an article about him building homes in 1941.
