#December 5, 1856
#OTD Henry Welsh, #California #Oilman, #Vineyardist, & #Attorney, is born.
In 1912, he banded together w/ other #Raisin #Growers to form a coop called the California Assoc. #Raisin #Company, which quickly became known as the #Sun-Maid Raisin Growers Association. Henry served as the 1st president.
Here's a little Welsh #Trivia: In 1941, Henry revealed he loved his #Vineyard/#Climate so much that he hadn't left the #Fresno area in over 4 decades - not even to take a #Vacation.
