When Edgar Allan Poe's foster father, John Allan, died, Edgar did not inherit anything significant. John Allan had made provisions for his wife and other children in his will, leaving Edgar out of his inheritance. Poe had a strained relationship with John Allan throughout his life and was largely financially independent by the time of his father's death.

Poe lived in England for a time.
Allegedly Poe was upset because John Allan was having affairs with other women in his house when his wife (Poe's foster mother) Frances Allan was sick. On the other hand, John Allan disapproved of Poe's gambling and drinking. Both had their issues with the other.
Some poets who write in a style similar to Edgar Allan Poe include Charles Baudelaire, H.P. Lovecraft, and Emily Dickinson. They share themes of darkness, melancholy, and the macabre in their works.
Edgar Allen Poe is famous for "The Raven", "The Tell Tale Heart", and "The Black Cat", along with many other works.
His mother died and his father left him... there were two women who knew his mother, and one adopted his sister. The other adopted him. Their last name was Allan, so they made that Edgar's middle name. John Allan didn't like Edgar, and disowned him when his wife died. Eventually, Edgar did find love-- a girl named Virginia. But she died of "consumption" at an early age, inspiring a lot of Poe's works, such as the Raven, and Annabel Lee.
