Katie Ellen Fluck and Edwin H. Meyers Katie Ellen Fluck and Edwin H. Meyers Oct 1877 – 1945 (est) Married: 1893 . Katie was only 16 years old when she married 19-year-old Edwin H Meyers of Bedminster. Their life together must have been very difficult because Edwin died in 1907 at the young age of 33 and Katie was about 30. In the 1900 census Edwin was listed as 26 years old with no occupation, which is very rare. Family lore is that Edwin was injured in a foundry accident, which led to his blindness, which meant he probably could not work in 1900.
