Dr. Plympton Ayers Walling was born January 1, 1850, in Warren County Pennsylvania. His father, Asaph Walling, was born in New York and his mother, Ann Negus, was born in Pennsylvania. His wife, Rosaline E. Kennedy, was born in
August 1850 in Pennsylvania. Her mother was born in New York. He married Rosie
August 11,1875, in Corry Pennsylvania. He received his M.D. degree from the
University of Buffalo N.Y. in 1876 and practiced medicine in Clymer New York from 1876 until the spring of 1882, when he moved to Park Rapids.

In January 1885 Dr. Walling established a weather service in Park Rapids with Instruments provided by the federal government and made reports without pay for about 11 years before it was made a corn and wheat reporting station and a small payment was authorized. This reporting has been continuous since 1885 and copies of the reports are on file in Park Rapids, Minneapolis, and Washington D.C.. Dr. Walling was on the school board in 1887, and was active in every civic improvement. In 1892 his new office In Park Rapids was valued at $600.00.

In January 1900 he could be reached by phone at his office and drug store by asking the operator for "80" and at home by asking for 116.11.
