  Dr Daniel Hale Williams did not conduct the first open heart surgery in 1893. Dr. Williams repaired a wound not in the heart muscle itself, but in the sac surrounding it, the pericardium. This operation was not the first of its type: Henry Dalton of St. Louis performed a nearly identical operatio...

  Fred Jones was not the first to invent refrigerated transportation. Refrigerated ships and railcars had been moving perishables across oceans and continents even before Jones was born. Trucks with mechanically refrigerated cargo spaces appeared on the roads at least as early as the late 1920s. ...

  Nor did Granville Woods invent the first third rail. Werner von Siemens pioneered the use of an electrified third rail as a means for powering railway vehicles when he demonstrated an experimental electric train at the 1879 Berlin Industrial Exhibition. In the US, English-born Leo Daft used a th...

  Nor did Granville Woods invent the first steam-boiler in 1884. The steam engine boiler is of course as old as the steam engine itself. The Subject Matter Index of Patents Issued from the United States Patent Office from 1790 to 1873 Inclusive lists several hundred variations and improvements to ...

  Granville Woods did not invent the first air brake. In 1869, a 22-year-old George Westinghouse received US patent #88929 for a brake device operated by compressed air, and in the same year organized the Westinghouse Air Brake Company. Many of the 361 patents he accumulated during his career were...

  The earliest patents for train telegraphs go back to at least 1873.

  The oil cup, which automatically delivers a steady trickle of lubricant to machine parts while the machine is running, predates McCoy's career; a description of one appears in the May 6, 1848 issue of Scientific American.

Garrett Morgan did invent a version of the gas mask, though his was nowhere near the first. His gas mask consisted of a hood with a long tube that extended to the ground. The interior of the tube was lined with spongy material which would trap impurities in the air.

  Garrett Morgan did NOT invent, nor patent, the FIRST traffic signal. Over 50 traffic signals had already been patented prior to Garrett Morgan's version (which was never put into mass production, nor does it resemble anything like modern traffic lights). Electric traffic signals were already be...

  How is it that Charles Drew invented the first blood bank in 1940 when Cook County Hospital had a blood bank in 1937? Actually, Dr Bernard Fantus (white) is the inventor of the first blood bank.
