According to this they were painted in 1944

Just more revisionism...either in the art or the story.
old Joe Kennedy was ‘kind of known’ as he was ambassador to England until he fawned over the Nazis too much...
I doubt the artist knew of him or his son, unless he was a Boston Dhimmicrat himself....and even then I doubt it.
