The “long highway” located on the ridge of the hill above the sandy plain along the Quinnipiac River is the present Main Street in Wallingford. Wallingford was the birthplace of Aaron Jerome (1764-1802), the great-great-grandfather of Sir Winston Churchill; inventor and publisher Moses Yale Beach (1800–1868), who would go on to found the Associated Press; singer Morton Downey; conservative talk show host Morton Downey, Jr. The town produces its own electricity and maintains an electric company with rates well below the state's average.
