Sherlock Holmes' first case was 'The Gloria Scott' published in 1893, but the first published Sherlock Holmes story was the novel, 'A Study in Scarlet' (1887) which, coincidentally, was his first case where he was accompanied by Watson.


Did Watson help Sherlock Holmes with all his cases?

No. 'The Gloria Scott' and 'The Musgrave Ritual' were solved by Holmes before the two even met, and 'The Adventure of the Lion's Mane' and 'The Adventure of the Blanched Soldier' were cases written by Holmes after Watson was married. There are certainly other cases in which Watson had no hand.When Helen Stoner ('The Adventure of the Speckled Band') refers to the case of Mrs. Farintosh and her opal tiara by way of reference, Holmes says: "I think it was before your time, Watson."In 'The Adventure of the Second Stain,' Watson says that in 17 of the 23 years that Sherlock Holmes was in active practice, he "was allowed to co-operate with him and to keep notes of his doings" leaving six years where the two were not together.
