Joseph H. Smith invented the lawn sprinkler.
The lawn sprinkler is a common sight in many communities during the warm summer months. It was invented by Joseph H. Smith who was born on December 23, 1805.
Joseph H. Smith has written: 'History of Harrison County, Iowa, including a condensed history of the state, the early settlement of the county ... together with sketches of its pioneers ..' -- subject(s): History
Joseph Smith Jr.'s parents were Joseph Smith Sr. and Lucy Mack Smith. (it is interesting to note that Joseph inherited his father's name, although he was not the oldest son) Joseph Smith Sr. was born July 12, 1771 in Topsfield Massachusetts to Asael Smith and Mary Duty Smith. Lucy Mack Smith was born July 8, 1775 in Gilsum, New Hampshire to Solomon Mack and Lydia Gates Mack. They were married at Tunbridge, Vermont on January 26, 1795.
The Joseph Smith that invented the lawn sprinkler was notthe same Joseph Smith that founded Mormonism.The Joseph Smith that invented the lawn sprinkler was a black American slave. We know very little about him but can assume that he invented the sprinkler to make watering the lawn easier!

no. Joseph Smith was the founder of mormanism.
Joseph H. Smith was an African American born into slavery who invented an improved version of the lawn sprinkler. He was not the first person to invent and patent the lawn sprinkler, but his sprinkler patents improved on the original idea. After creating his first sprinkler, he continued to improve it and patented a second version.
Upon his birth, Joseph Smith was named Joseph Smith. Throughout his life he was called Joseph Smith, Jr. because his father's name is also Joseph Smith. His son was named Joseph Smith, III. His enemies often referred to him as Joe Smith. This was intended to be very disrespectful, and it was often offensive.
