How about a Pezet who was questioned by the FBI during one of the most intensive investigations of the last century: The assassination of President John F. Kennedy!
Buried in the 26 volumes of the Warren Commission Report, among thousands of documents and photos tracing the steps of Lee Harvey Oswald and Jack Ruby, is commission exhibit No. 2467. It is an FBI report dated April 8, 1964 of interviews with Charles R. Pezet and Juanita Davalos at Dallas, Texas, concerning the identification of a bracelet similar to that belonging to Marina Oswald, wife of the accused assassin.
The Pezet connection is detailed in an FBI report found in Vol. 25, pages 640 to 643. (You can read the report at this link:

According to the report, Charles R. Pezet was operating a watch repair concession at the H.L. Green Department Store on Main Street in Dallas. The FBI was interested in expansion identification bracelets which Oswald and his wife both wore. What significance the bracelets had is not revealed in the report. During his interview, Charles Pezet indicated that he may have sold the bracelet in question to Marina Oswald, and after performing some test engravings for the FBI, he was fairly certain that he was the person who had engraved her name on the ID bracelet.
Shown a photo of Lee Harvey Oswald, Pezet told the FBI he was unable to recall whether the assassin had ever been one of his customers, but conceded that it was possible that Oswald had purchased items from his shop.
The agent goes on to recount that Charles Pezet had been called by a manager of the department store to engrave a piece of jewelry for a customer in early October 1963, about a month before Kennedy was killed, but Pezet did not pay much attention to the customer and could not even recall if it was a man or a woman.
Charles Pezet belonged to a branch of the Pezet family from Peru that settled in the United States. He was the only child of Carlos Pezet Valle-Riestra, who served as counsel general of Peru in Houston, Texas, among other diplomatic posts, and Carmela Rodgers. Charles was a great, great grandson of Gen. Juan Antonio Pezet, president of Peru (1863-65).
Charles married Laverne Wylie of Dallas and they had three daughters. Laverne died on April 1, 2005. Charles passed away in January of 2006 at the age of 82.
