It's thought to have been in a process of development in the latter part of the 1890's. But the first blues was published in 1904 and written by James Chapman and Leroy Smith, the song is labeled 'ragtime/two-step.' 'One O' Them Things' begins with an introduction in the cakewalk rhythm (o o o ), and this intro is followed by a 12 bar blues section.

Acoustic Gituars and drums were used.
It started when the Africans were sold as slaves to America. The Africans brought their syncopated rhythm from Africa and combined this syncopation with words to produce work songs. As the slaves worked, they sung these songs. In these work songs, the Africans used a concept called call and repeat, the foundation of the twelve bar blues. Eventually, the work songs evolved into what we call the twelve bar blues.
