From what I can tell, William Post worked for Kellogg. Any relation to Charles William Post, founder of the company that makes Post cereals?

Not really. The answer is no. But the obituary is worth reading as the man seems to have lived a good life.
I did not see an answer to this in the obituary.
Pop-Tarts™ are junk food, though.
