The Initials belonged to George C. Ovens, a
producer of pepper sauce and catsup at Red

According to the March 29, 1893, issue of the Red Bank Register,George Ovens moved from Albany, New York, to Red Bank, New Jersey, in 1864 and built a plant to make catsup and pepper sauce.
When Ovens died in 1866, his son, George C. Ovens, operated the business and changed the name to George C. Ovens & Co. George C. Ovens moved to Chicago circa.1888, and Ephraim E. Ovens (probably a son or brother) ran the business until the factory burned around 1890.
