Is the United States Congress an authoritative enough source for you, or 
do you need somebody from UT or USF to tell you ?
Official: Antonio Meucci was the real inventor of telephony
On the past June 15th, 2002, the *US* *Congress* *officially* 
*recognized* that the *Italian* *inventor* *Antonio* *Meucci* is to be 
*credited* for the *invention* of the *telephone*, and *not* Alexander 
G. *Bell*, as so far claimed.
107th CONGRESS
1st session
H. RES. 269
Expressing the sense of the House of
Representatives to honor the life and achievements of 19th Century
Italian-American inventor Antonio Meucci, and his work in the
invention of the telephone.
_____________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
Mr. FOSSELLA
submitted the following resolution; which
was referred to the Committee on
_____________________________
RESOLUTION
Expressing the sense of the House of Representatives to honor the life 
and achievements of 19th Century Italian-American inventor Antonio 
Meucci, and his work in the invention of the telephone.
Whereas Antonio Meucci, the great Italian inventor, had a career that 
was both extraordinary and tragic;
Whereas upon immigrating to New York, Meucci continued to work with 
ceaseless vigor on a project he had begun in Havana, Cuba, an invention 
he later called the 'teletrofono',involving electronic communications;
2
Whereas Meucci set up a rudimentary communication link in his Staten 
Island home that connected the basement with the first floor, and later, 
when his wife began to suffer from crippling arthritis, he created a 
permanent link between his lab and his wife’s second floor bedroom;
Whereas, having exhausted most of his life’s savings in pur-suing his 
work, Meucci was unable to commercialize his invention, though he 
demonstrated his invention in 1860 and had a description of it published 
in New York’s Italian language newspaper;
Whereas Meucci never learned English well enough to navigate the complex 
American business community;
Whereas Meucci was unable to raise sufficient funds to pay his way 
through the patent application process, and thus had to settle for a 
caveat, a one year renewable notice of an impending patent, which was 
first filed on December 28, 1871;
Whereas Meucci later learned that the Western Union affil-iate 
laboratory reportedly lost his working models, and Meucci, who at this 
point was living on public assistance, was unable to renew the caveat 
after 1874;
Whereas in March 1876, Alexander Graham Bell, who conducted experiments 
in the same laboratory where Meucci’s materials had been stored, was 
granted a patent and was thereafter credited with inventing the telephone;
Whereas on January 13, 1887, the Government of the United States moved 
to annul the patent issued to Bell on the grounds of fraud and 
misrepresentation, a case that the Supreme Court found viable and 
remanded for trial;
3
Whereas Meucci died in October 1889, the Bell patent ex-pired in January 
1893, and the case was discontinued as moot without ever reaching the 
underlying issue of the true inventor of the telephone entitled to the 
patent; and
Whereas if Meucci had been able to pay the $10 fee to main-tain the 
caveat after 1874, no patent could have been issued to Bell: Now, 
therefore, be it Resolved, That it is the sense of the House of 
Representatives that the life and achievements of Antonio Meucci should 
be recognized, and his work in the invention of the telephone should be 
acknowledged.
