From the journal Volume 30 Issue 4

The Library of Congress recently digitized about 6,500 documents from its holdings of The Samuel F. B. Morse Papers. The online exhibit of about 50,000 images “document Morse's invention of the electromagnetic telegraph, his participation in the development of telegraph systems in the United States and abroad, his career as a painter, his family life, his travels, and his interest in early photography, religion, and the nativist movement … The papers included date from 1793 to 1919, but most are from 1807 to 1872.”
