Where does "Swanson" come from?[edit]

Where does his middle name, "Swanson", come from? Mksword (talk) 23:20, 28 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It's on the title page of the new book. Let's hope it's true, because his sister was often called "Harriet Ann", and as far as I could find out, her middle name was just invented by later editions of her autobiography. Rsk6400 (talk) 05:23, 29 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
