Dorothy Hill was an Australian geologist known for her seminal work on corals dating to the Paleozoic Era (roughly 539 million to about 252 million years ago) and championing the efforts of women in academia in 20th-century Australia.
Three Hills was incorporated as a village in 1912, the year it was moved to its current location on the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway line running between Tofield and Calgary. With ranchers and farmers constituting its first residents, it soon became a centre for the surrounding wheat-growing area.
The Town of Three Hills is located 128 km northeast of Calgary. Three Hills takes its name from 3 prominent hills to the north of the town. Settlement began in the area in the early 20th century and a post office was established there in 1904.
By 1946 Hill had been recognised as the pre-eminent specialist on Australian Palaeozoic corals, and overseas workers were visiting her or sending her collections, extending her knowledge of global and stratigraphic distributions.
