Did you know, Gerhard,
Samuel Morse is sometimes credited with taking the first ever photograph in
the US
Googling seems to have it down to Seager


When was the first photograph taken in the US?
In: Inventions [Edit categories] [Edit]
[Edit]
The first photographs taken in the US were made in the spring of 1839 by two
Harvard students: Edward Everett Hale and Samuel Longfellow. They repeated
experiments per descriptions of Talbot's work published in American journals
early in 1839. John Locke, of the Medical College of Ohio, publicly
exhibited photogenic drawings (made without a camera by placing objects on
sensitized paper, then exposing and processing) sometime early in about May
1839.
Samuel Morse was the first to bring news of Daguerre's invention to the US
via letters to his brothers, published in the New York Observer on May 18,
1839, and was one of the first to attempt the process when the instructions
arrived in August, but the first documented Daguerreotype taken in the US
was by a man named D.W. Seager, who had carried the French instruction
manual from London to New York and had taken it directly to Morse. Seager's
first Daguerreotype was a view of St. Paul's Church in New York City taken
on September 16, 1839.
