William Hill was the founder of the British bookmaking firm William Hill. Born in Birmingham in 1903, he began collecting illegal bets on a motorcycle while working in a factory. After a failed start in bookmaking, he moved to London in 1929 and opened an illicit gambling den in 1934. He was notable for producing the first fixed-odds football coupon in 1944 and opened his first betting office in 1966. Also a horse breeder, he owned the 1959 St Leger Stakes winner, Cantelo. Hill passed away in 1971.
