You can't really say that stoichiometry was "discovered" because stoichiometry is a mathematical process. It requires you to convert various quantities using a technique called dimensional analysis. The quantities involved, such as the mole, were discovered independent of each other, sometimes hundreds of years apart.

If pressed for a date, I'd go with the discovery of the mole, which was first proposed in 1811 but not calculated until 1865.
