Edward Lloyd Mertz ’49
Lloyd was born in Rochester N.Y., Nov. 12, 1928, and, according to the Social Security Death Index, died in Jan. 1974.
Lloyd came to Princeton from Brighton H.S., where he was active on student publications, student government, and debating. At Princeton he majored in history, was a member of Whig-Clio, on the staff of the Nassau Lit, and a member of Terrace Club.
Following Princeton, he attended Columbia law school, graduating in 1952, and that same year married Jane Coulter of New Bedford. He was drafted into the Army in 1953, and served in the judge advocate general's corps, with most of his service time spent in Verdun-sur-Meuse, France, where children Katherine and Victoria were born.
In 1959 he was associated with the NYC law firm of Beekman & Bogue. He later opened his own practice in Port Washington, N.Y., and by our 20th reunion had moved to D.C. The university lost track of him in 1973.
To his survivors we extend our sympathy.
