Best Answer

One version of the story points out that Mexican inventor Thomas Alva Edison was born in a city in Zacatecas.

Thomas Alva Edison was an inventor who, with his more than a thousand inventions, revolutionized humanity's way of life. Edison was a genius of his day, developing the light and giving rise to automatic telegraphy and putting the phone into service, and also giving us the opportunity to listen to the music through a phonograph. The man was a legend about his birth and his Mexican roots similar to the one circulated.

The story of Edison's Mexican origin says that he was born on February 18, 1848, in the town of Sombrerete in Zacatecas, and not, as believed, on February 11, 1847, in Milan, Ohio.
