Vaccination did not have its origin with Edward Jenner. He learned of its efficacy from local folklore, and a Lady Margaret Montague who had her child vaccinated whilst in Turkey in 1718, where her husband was an UK official.
Vaccination had been practiced in India and China in much earlier years - according to an Indian medical text, perhaps as early as 1000 - 2000 BC.
Because of Jenner and Montague, vaccination against smallpox via a cowpox challenge, was becoming widespread, if somewhat sporadically, in the 1700s.
The word vaccine derives from Latin vacca for cow. And Pasteur named the products vaccines in honour of Jenner.
Pasteur went on to develop various other vaccines, and indeed in 1885 he applied an early variety of rabies vaccine to a child bitten by a rabid dog. Whether the child had indeed contracted the disease is debated, for even modern rabies vaccines are only considered worthwhile before the disease challenge.
