Paul M. Gillmor, a lifelong resident and distinguished community leader in the village of Old Fort, worked with his family to further the prosperity of the Old Fort community. Their efforts included bringing the church and Dwight Facility to Seneca County, helping turn a little league field in Fort Seneca into a modern park and recreation area with his son Congressman Paul Gillmor, donating the ball field to the Old Fort school, and supporting the replacement of the Old Fort Bridge with his daughter-in-law former state senator Karen L. Gillmor, who helped secure state and federal grant funding and support. In recognition of his many years of dedicated service to the Old Fort community and Seneca County, the Board of Commissioners of Seneca County, Ohio, ordered that the Old Fort Bridge be renamed in his honor on September 27, 1999.
