== Family origins and early years ==
Paul Harris Nicolas was born at St Martin-by-Looe, Cornwall, England, on 1 March 1790.〔Search Results – FamilySearch.org – Free Family History and Genealogy Records!()〕 He was the nephew of a British Marine Lieutenant, Nicholas Harris Nicholas (1755–1816) who was wounded at the Battle of Bunker Hill. Paul Harris Nicolas was himself the second of five sons of still another noteworthy, if lesser known, British water colourist, Commander John Harris Nicholas, RN (1758–1844), and his wife, the former Margaret Blake (1762–1852). With deep roots in Cornwall, the family also claimed French Huguenot origins. In spite of romantic attachments to the past, however, the commander and his widow continued to spell their name as ''Nicholas'' until the end of their lives, long after the decision of their sons (Paul Harris Nicolas and his brothers) to adopt the French-styled "original" spelling of ''Nicolas''.
The four brothers of Paul Harris Nicolas were: Rear Admiral John Toup Nicolas, CB (1788–1851); Commander William Keigwin Nicolas, RN (1792–1871); Lieutenant Sir Nicholas Harris Nicolas, RN (1799–1848); and Charles Henry Nicolas (1801–1881).
