George Washington Murray was a farmer, teacher, inventor and U.S. congressman who earned nine U.S. patentsβeight of them for agricultural machinery in 1894.
His inventions helped farmers plant, fertilize, harvest and distribute crops more efficiently.
That same year, Murray read a list of 92 inventions patented by African Americans into the Congressional Record. Compiled by patent examiner Henry E. Baker, the list became an important record of Black innovation.
Murrayβs name was on it, too!
