Notes |
- He was called "Big Gus" to distinguish him "Little Gus" Augustus Hawkins, the youngest son of David Hawkins, also living in Fire Place at the time. They were second cousins.
Hawkins vol II states that Augustus Hawkins was " 'actually [the] natural born son of 143 [Ruth Hawkins] per Osborne Shaw before [her] marriage to Charles Rice,' which corresponds with the footnote under Ruth (143) Hawkins that reads, 'Before her marriage she had a 'natural' son, Charles Augustus (39-3001) Hawkins .... His father may also have been a Hawkins.' "
