Alfred Schild has established conditions that Lorentz transformationsmap world-vectors $(ct,x,y,z)$ with integer coordinates onto vectors of the same kind. These transformations are called integral Lorentz transformations.This paper contains supplements to our earlier work with a new focus on group theory. To relate the results to the familiar matrix group nomenclature, we associate Lorentz transformations with matrices in $\text{SL}(2,\mathbb{C})$ . We consider the lattice of subgroups of the group originated in Schild's paper and obtain generating sets for the full group and its subgroups.
