There is no reliable historical information on how this came about. One of the most plausible explanations is that the pronoun "I" began a sentence so often that people habitually capitalized it where ever it appeared in a sentence.

If you say he or she, there are many people you could be referring to, just like if you say that person. but if you say I there is only one person you could be talking about; your self.
