Alex bell of Scotland, Great Britain, on March 7th 1876 patent was granted, at that time he resided in Salem, Massachusetts. Alexander Graham Bell invented his telephone as a result of his research into improving the telegraph system. He was experimenting into improving the system so multiple telegraphs could be sent at the same time (his theory "harmonic telegraph" was based on the principle that several notes could be sent simultaneously along the same wire if the different signals differed in pitch). However at the same time he was working on a novel idea that speech could be transmitted electronically as he discovered by accident that the sound of a spring being twanged could be heard over his harmonic telegraph system. Almost a year later in March 1876 Bell uttered the first famous words into the device to his assistant in the next room "Mr. Watson, come here I want to see you". A Black man, Lewis Lattimerinvented the moving parts of the telephone, along with a whole host of other products not among least the filament for the electric light bulb. Alexander Graham Bell does not and has never held a Patent for the invention of the telephone. Alexander Grahm Bell holds the patent for being the first to mass producethe telephone. When Lewis Lattimer was born, Black people were property and therefore could not have achievements, some whites would have been outraged. Alexander Grahm bell and Thomas Edison patented many of Lattimer's inventions in their own name and a check of the US patent office will confirm that Lewis Lattimer did in fact invent the telephone,electric filament aka electric light bulb, electric iron and an entire host of other things. Some say Alexander Graham Bell stole the idea from another person. Antonio Meucci, 1860. Despite the persistent claims of modern revisionists defending Alexander Graham Bell, it is a certain fact that both Antonio Meucci first, then followed by Elisha Gray, had successfully invented telephones before Alexander Graham Bell did in 1876. More importantly, the United States Congress in 2002 passed a resolution stating that given the facts of patent disputes between Gray and Bell, under no terms could Alexander Graham Bell have been awarded the patent caveat for the telephone by the United States Patent and Trademark Office in 1876. Given what we know now, the "real" inventor of the telephone is in fact, Antonio Meucci. However, the person who "commercialized" the telephone was Alexander Graham Bell."
