Thomas Newcomen, an English inventor, developed the first practical steam engine for pumping water. Newcomen was concerned about the flooding that was common in tin and coal mines and wanted to develop a better system in which he could remove the water. Around 1705 - 1710 CE Newcomen created his steam engine that could be used as a pump.
The first practical steam-powered 'engine' was a water pump, developed in 1698 by Thomas Savery.

Thomas Savery, an English military engineer patented the first crude steam engine in 1698. It was used for pumping water out of coal mines. further improvements were made very shortly afterwards by first Thomas Newcomen and then by James Watt.

The first steam engine, a water pump type, was used in mines, pumping stations, and the textile industry.
They were invented and developed in the following order: -- Steam engine (first) -- Radio -- Airplane -- Television (last)
The first machine a vapeur, or steam engine, was invented by Thomas Savery in 1698. This early steam engine used steam pressure to pump water out of mines.
Thomas Newcommen's invention was further developed by James Watt.
