Hi,

I can confirm that Edmund Hill lived originally in Kent, and worked as a miner. He moved to St.Helens a century ago where he started to write poems including the local dialect, several of which local groups put to music in the 1960s/1970s.

If you need any more information on the poet, though my knowledge is limited, feel free to email me on: hill_lauren@hotmail.co.uk

As you may guess from my surname, I am a relative of the poet, but would rather not give too much information on the public domain. I am able to discuss the family tree, life, hobbies, living relatives etc, but would prefer this information to only be shown to those who actually want the information rather than everyone on the internet.

Look forward to hearing from you,
L.H
