Useful piecing together of the puzzle here, for me too.
I hang out with Cal Tech alumni some, so hear about Feynman a lot, also Linus Pauling (chemistry).
I recommend this movie on Hulu as perhaps showing where some of these "secret meetings" took place in San Francisco, although in the case of Hawking somewhere more convenient than the top floor of that house might have been indicated.
I've also put a pointer back to this blog post in a meandering filing regarding a new Wittgenstein Study Group in Portland. More dots connected therein.
