Erroll Baldwin Hay was born in Beirut, Syria (what is today Beirut, Lebanon) on March 23, 1873, to John Baldwin Hay, US Consul-General to Syria, and Cora Holmes Badger. By the time he enrolled at Haverford in 1891, he was living in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. During his time at the school, he was class secretary (1891) and vice president (1895). Immediately after graduating from Haverford in 1895, he became a clerk in a banker and broker's office in Philadelphia.
