On this day in 1922, Alexander Graham Bell died on his estate in Nova Scotia.
Bell was born in Scotland and later immigrated to Canada with his family. In his early inventive years, he lived in the United States and obtained American citizenship after his marriage. In his later years, he kept residences in the U.S. and Canada, but tended to favor his home in Nova Scotia, which had originally been a summer home. He was 75 at the time of his death. He is, of course, most famously noted for the telephone.
