The First Telephone

The First Telephone

Blake Mullet

 

  The first telephone was invented in 1876. During this time period there were two men that were trying to invent a telephone. The guy’s names were Alexander Bell and Elisha Gray. Both men were trying to see who could come up with an idea that worked first. Alexander was the first to invent a telephone that worked and he was assisted by Thomas Watson. When the telephone was first created, it became a company called Bell Telephone Company. He named his company after himself. That company that used to be the Bell Telephone Company is now known as AT&T.
