In 1876, Alexander Graham Bell was granted United States Patent Number 174465.
There is much debate as to who actually invented it first, as there was another very similar device made by Elisha Gray. Both devices allowed two people to have a 'live' conversation with each other using an electically powered system.
The two inventors literally raced to get to the Patent Office to claim the invention as their own and to protect it from the other, and anyone else.
Bell got there first, beating Gray by only a couple of hours
A rather viscious legal battle followed with Gray claiming the device was his invention and that Bell had stolen his idea. The Courts found in favour of Bell, and it is his name that is associated with the invention of the telephone.
