Edward Charles Hulme was born in London, in 1821. He was educated in London, where he was so severely burned by a squib which he was carrying in his pocket that he was an invalid for two years. After further instruction from a tutor he was apprenticed to an apothecary at Totnes, his father having bought property at Stoke Gabriel on the river Dart. He entered St. Bartholomew's Hospital, and in 1840 was appointed Student in Human and Comparative Anatomy of the Royal College of Surgeons. He had a practice at 19 Gower Street, and was for a time Surgeon to the Blenheim Street Free Dispensary, then to the Central London Ophthalmic Hospital, to the Great Northern Hospital, and Medical Examiner to the Marine Society.
