did not show in maverick listng i have

check dunn bradstreet 1919 showed a fred potthast as a saloon and restaurant.

i see wm. in the very cool and d etailed story so worth checking more. may have been before or name change as memorial!!!

after re reading the story the wm. part may have come before. search of earlier city directories. you've goat the city which is the hard part from the amazing story so just look earlier.

really neat history of the times.
