Edmund Mills Hann : ウィキペディア英語版 | Edmund Mills Hann
Edmund Mills Hann (1850 – 1931) was a Welsh prominent figure in the industrial life of South Wales, and a leading coal owner during the industrial struggles of the 1920s. He was active in local politics in the Aberdare area and an inaugural member of the Aberdare Urban District Council in 1894. ==Political life== In 1889, Hann unsuccessfully sought election as a Conservative to the Glamorgan County Council but was defeated by a Liberal tradesman, T.P. White. The result was regarded with surprise in some quarters and when White was elevated to the aldermanic bench it was felt locally that Hann would be successful in the subsequent by-election. However, Hann was again defeated by a different Liberal candidate, Thomas Davies. Hann thereafter recognised that gaining seat on the County Council in a strongly Liberal township such as Aberaman was beyond him. More locally, however, Hann was more successful. When the Aberdare Urban District Council was established in 1894, Hann had the highest poll in the Aberaman ward and was duly elected as one of the three ward councillors. He remained a member for over a decade. In 1896 he became High-Constable of Aberdare.〔() 〕 He was elected the first president of Aberdare General Hospital.
