J. S. Bach
Mozart and Beethoven were of the 'Classical' music era (although Beethoven actually bridged the Classical and Romantic periods), whilst Bach was purely of the Baroque era. Also, Mozart and Beethoven met each other, with Mozart actually giving Beethoven his first lesson in composition. Bach actually died six years before Mozart was even born.
Bach was born first, by more than 80 years.

Bach, by quite a bit. Beethoven and Chopin had no children. Mozart had six, four of whom died in infancy. Johann Sebastian Bach had seven children with his first wife and thirteen more with his second wife. Only ten of the twenty lived to adulthood.

Yes he did. He inspired people like Beethoven and Mozart.

Beethoven's early music was largely influenced by Mozart. He admired Mozart's music, and actually met him in Vienna at the age of sixteen, whereupon Mozart was so impressed by the young prodigy that he gave him his first composition lesson. Forced to return to Bonn with news that his mother was dying, Beethoven did not return to Vienna until 1792, by which time Mozart had died. Haydn then gave Beethoven further composition lessons for a short time, which is why music from this "first period" of Beethoven's composing career strongly reflects the styles of Mozart and Haydn.
Mozart was Beethoven's first teacher. Beethoven had just one lesson with him before he had to return to Bonn. When he returned, Mozart had died, and Haydn became Beethoven's teacher, but they never enjoyed the same rapport or mutual admiration that Mozart and Beethoven had.
