Last week's question, "Who is this Couple?" was answered correctly by Amy Frey. (Note: We appreciate comments on West Hartford Patch, but we ask you to please use your complete first and last name. Thanks Amy, for letting us know who "amystery726" is, and for correctly responding to this question.)

The correct answer is: Miriam and Oliver Butterworth were both well known members of the community. Oliver was the author of several prize-winning children’s books, including The Enormous Egg. Miriam is the past town historian as well as a former teacher, political activist and author. She co-authored the local history book, Celebrate! West Hartford.
