In 1871 at the age of three, Paul with his brother and father went to live
at the home of Paul's paternal grandfather in Wallingford Vt. He remained
based there until the 1880s. While in England in March 1934, Paul Harris
visited Wallingford near Oxford, the original town after which the Vermont
town was named.
