McSwain, William A Son M W 7 Single TX AR AL
In trhe 1920 census, William is reported as Gussie, and as a female,. A genealogy or two tells us his full name was William August, which accounts for the nickname Gus, and the diminutive Gussie. But Gussie is normally a girl's nickname, so it is understandable that the enumerator misunderstood when taking down the list of children's names he was given.
