Charles met Edith Peter in Arkansas where she was working in a store he was working in. Though both were from Belleville, IL, they had not met before. After marrying in 1917, they opened up a photo studio in Heber Springs, Arkansas, then together went to school to become chiropractors and were adventurous enough to travel throughout the American southwest and in the 1930 census they were both chiropractors in Delta and nearby Hotchkiss, Colorado. By 1935 they were living on East Sixth Street in Lordsburg, New Mexico. Dr. Fowler left behind a diary entry complaining about how hot the area was. He was much older than Edith and died September 23, 1943, at age 83 in hot Lordsburg. Edith returned to Belleville, IL and lived out her life with family there.
