1920 Census, 1-WD Port Arthur, Jefferson County, TX:
Purswell Guy Roomer M W 20 S TX TX TX Laborer Oil Refinery
Guy is also listed in the 1920 census living with his mother, Isabell D. Purswell in Montgomery County, TX
There is also a G. Purswell in the 1920 Claiborne Parish, LA census the right age, in the same household (a company barracks?) as a W. H. Purswell who is the right age to be William Henry Purswell, Guy's brother. I'm guessing he traveled a lot with the oil company and all 3 of these could possibly be him, if the censuses for each of these areas were taken at different times of the year.
