The Very First MatchThe very first usable match was developed in 1827. The inventor of the match, John Walker, however, was not the first to discover the possibility of the match. Over a century before, in 1680, an Irish physicist named Robert Boyle covered the end of a piece of paper in phosphorus, which had been discovered in 1669, and sulfur. When he struck the match against an object the friction would start a fire. This match, however, was not consistent enough to be used or to qualify as a true invention or the first match. Therefore, John Walker did invent the first dependable friction match.(hope this helps)
