From the Paper:

"David Herbert Richards Lawrence was born on September 11, 1885 at Eastwood in Nottinghamshire, the son of Arthur Lawrence, a coalminer and Lydia Lawrence, a former schoolmistress. He was frequently ill as a child, spent much of his childhood confined to his bed, and grew up in considerable poverty. He was especially close to his mother, a fact that can easily be seen in his early life and work. Living in near poverty his mother was determined that he should not become a miner like his father. Instead she encouraged him academically."
