Edmund Dwen Gill (11 December 1908 – 13 July 1986) was a prolific Australian scientist specialising in geology, museology, palaeontology and geomorphology.
[1] Gill was educated at Gisborne High School before going overseas to study the Licentiate of Theology at the Melbourne College of Divinity.
His views on evolution were incompatible with those of the Baptist Union and in 1948 he resigned from the ministry and became the museum's Curator of fossils, succeeding Alexander Robert Keble (1884–1963).
[1] His papers covered a wide range of subjects and many had a particular focus on the landscape of western and coastal Victoria, and the Warrnambool region.
In retirement he became a research fellow in the CSIRO Division of Applied Geomechanics, and continued to work on coastal processes.
