Henry Coddington Meyer (April 14, 1844 - March 27, 1935) was an American editor and pioneer in sanitary engineering. He formed his own company to deal in plumbing, gas, and steam fixtures after being discharged from the Civil War due to injury. In 1877, he and other members of his household contracted diphtheria, their illness being attributed to defects in plumbing. This experience incited him to inaugurate measures for the improvement of sanitary conditions, devising a system of plumbing to remedy these defects. In the same year, he also founded the Plumber and Sanitary Engineer, the first issue of which appeared in December. FORN-TUB-0034-BB-0524-JC662
