Last week's question was "Who Was This Man?" and we only had one guess. Richard Patrissi knew exactly who was pictured in this image. "This is a picture of a good friend of my Dad's, Al Gledhill," said Patrissi, whose family owned a rival landscaping business, in West Hartford.

The answer provided by the Noah Webster House & West Hartford Historical Society is, "In 1922, Albert Gledhill started his nursery and landscaping
business that continues to be a thriving business in town."
