Yes, Samuel Morse, the inventor of the telegraph, did own slaves. Historical records indicate that he had at least two enslaved individuals working for him in the early 19th century. Morse's views on slavery were complex; while he expressed support for the institution in some writings, he also became involved in abolitionist movements later in his life.
