Edgar Allan Poe (1809-1849). Edgar Poe was born in 1809 in Boston to David and Elizabeth Poe. David was the son of a Revolutionary War hero and a drinker; Elizabeth, a popular stage actress. Soon after Edgarâs birth, David Poe left the family, and in December of 1811, Poeâs mother died. Two-year-old Edgar was taken in by John Allan, a wealthy Richmond tobacco merchant, who lent Poe his middle name.
