Edison Pioneers
The Edison Pioneers was an organization composed of former employees of Thomas Edison who had worked with the inventor in his early years. Membership was limited to people who had worked closely with Edison before 1885.[1] On February 11, 1918, the Edison Pioneers met for the first time, on the 71st birthday of Edison. There were 37 people at the first meeting. Edison himself was not present; it was announced he was "engaged in important government service".[2] It was suspected he was working on a military project since World War I was still in progress.[2] The organization had 100 members although in later years descendants of Edison Pioneers were also allowed membership.
