Robert Fulton (November 14, 1765 – February 24, 1815) was an American engineer and inventor who is widely credited with developing a commercially successful steamboat called Clermont. That steamboat went with passengers from New York City to Albany and back again, a round trip of 300 miles, in 62 hours. In 1800, he was commissioned by Napoleon Bonaparte to design the "Nautilus", which was the first practical submarine in history. He is also credited with inventing some of the world's earliest naval torpedoes for use by the British Royal Navy.
Fulton became interested in steam engines and using them on steamboats in 1777 when he was around age 12 and visited state delegate William Henry of Lancaster, Pennsylvania, who himself had earlier learned about inventor James Watt, (1736-1819), and his Watt steam engine on a visit to England.
Robert Fulton was born on a farm in Little Britain, Pennsylvania, on November 14, 1765. He had at least three sisters – Isabella, Elizabeth, and Mary, and a younger brother, Abraham. He then married Harriet Livingston and had four children, Julia, Mary, Cornelia, and Robert. His father, Robert, had been a close friend to the father of painter Benjamin West, (1738-1820). Fulton later met West in England and they became friends.

Being curious about the man considered the forgotten man of the Hudson-Fulton-Champlain Quadricentennial celebration, I did some research on him. Quite an interesting guy. Hero or scoundrel?

This video is taken from the Full Length Documentary I did on the Hudson-Fulton Celebration of 1909. It is a high level view of the life and work of Robert Fulton. It is meant to highlight some of the notable events that occured during his life and is not a detailed account of each. You might even see our Wright Flyer Time Machine! For those interested in more detail there are a number of good books referenced in the Bibliography at the end of the video. Please feel free to join us at www.facebook.com/groups/hfc1909 (Hudson-Fulton Celebration 1909) to discuss the video, Henry Hudson, Robert Fulton, or the Celebration of 1909. The views expressed in this video are mine and mine alone. Your mileage may vary. Copyright@ 2015 by Joe Santacroce And Family Memory Services, Inc. www.family...

Perhaps the first "televangelist" back in the 1950's and the person who Reverend Robert Schuller said was his inspiration to go on television, Archbishop Sheen preaches three messages from the former sanctuary before the Crystal Cathedral was constructed. This video is now more pertinent than ever considering that the Roman Catholic Church now owns the property and has completed a loving multi-million dollar restoration of the Aboretum (the old sanctuary) and is in the midst of renovating the Crystal Cathedral (now Christ Cathedral) – anticipated completion in 2017.
