Christopher Sholes invented the modern typewriter around l867 ? It was after the civil war as they were not used in that period. Sholes sold his patent to Remington until recently very much a business machines name. It is popularily believed,though with any fungible, mass-produced device such as a typewriter difficult to prove, that the frist popular writer to regularily use one was Mark Twain. (Tom Sawyer) was typed out as a manuscript, rather than hand-written, literal meaning of manuscript. Keyboat usical instruments, that"s a whole nother smoke, Clavichords and such like. There was a modest attempt to revive the clavichord as a sort of intermediate instrument between a piano and a guitar, with a guitar-like sound by some German instrument makes inthe ealry sixties. Despite Berlin Concerts for the Boys in Olive Drab ( USO Army benefits) the idea did not really Twang. it is interesting to speculate if it had it might have changed the course of popular music. Lap Steels are almost a form of clavichord but on a different principle used by C&W musicians.

You could mean keyboards that are part of Musical Instruments, or typing keyboards.

Christopher Latham Sholes invented the still used QWERTY keyboard in 1873. There were other keyboard layouts before QWERTY, but Sholes' typewriter with the QWERTY layout was the first commercially successful attempt. There have been other keyboard layouts, notably the Dvorak, but none has replaced the QWERTY.

The common keyboard or 'piano keyboard', with alternating short and long keys in the typical 2-3 format was developed some time in the 15th century.

The first keyboard was invented in 1868 by Christopher Sholes. The first modern keyboard was when the computers arrived in the mid 20th century.
