This is rather funny, but true. His name was John Crapper. Yet, he is only credited with improvements to it. The man given the most credit is John Harrington an Englishman. The toilet has a long history . The Romans had flushing indoor Plumbing and toilets and there is historical evidence of them in 2500 BC.

Absolutely. Indoor toilets - and even flushing toilets - existed since about 1600, and the present-day model was already patented in 1852. Not by Thomas Crapper by the way, although his name is immortalized in toilet-related expressions. The outdoor toilet remained a fixture of rural areas until well into the 20th century, but that had mostly to do with the absence of waterworks and sewerage services in these areas.

How did Flushing NY get its name?

It is not known if the township of Flushing was named after the Dutch town of Vlissengen, or if the original settlers bestowed the name (which translates into English as Flowing Water) because of the meandering, snake-like course of the Flushing River. In any event, it is certain that the colonists marveled at the natural abundance of the area.
