Colonel Edward Hill (died c.1663) was a Virginia planter, soldier and politician. In addition to representing Charles City County for many terms in the House of Burgesses, fellow members three times selected him as its Speaker (1644–45, 1654–55, and 1659). Burgesses also sent Hill to Maryland to put down Richard Ingle's 1646 rebellion, and he acted as that colony's temporary governor before ceding to the proper governor, Leonard Calvert, but later contested nonpayment of monies promised to him and Virginia militia troops for that action. He also led the Charles County and Henrico County militia and Pamunkey native Americans against other tribes in Hanover County in 1656, with less success.
