Mis-named "Fred Baumen" is Fred Bowman

Hi,

Thanks for keeping this history alive on the web. Please note that there is an error on the page <https://gallery.multcolib.org/image/bridgeport-brewmaster-karl-ockert-an.... The page lists "Fred Baumen" of Portland Brewing Company. His correct name is Fred Bowman. See, e.g., <https://scarc.library.oregonstate.edu/findingaids/?p=collections/finding..., which shows another picture of Fred from the same era.

With best regards,

-Jay

Thank you for the information
