Samuel F. B. Morse war Vater von 7 Kindern, darunter Leila Morse (* 1851), Samuel Arthur Breese Morse, Jr., Charles Walker Morse, Edward Lind Morse (* 1857).
Samuel F. B. Morse war ein US-amerikanischer Erfinder und Professor für Malerei, Plastik und Zeichenkunst, der am 27. April 1791 geboren wurde und am 2. April 1872 verstarb. Er studierte am Yale College und finanzierte sich durch Miniaturenmalerei. 1811 reiste er nach England, um seine Malkünste zu vertiefen, wurde in die Royal Academy aufgenommen und kehrte 1815 nach Amerika zurück. Als Maler kämpfte Morse finanziell. Ein Porträtauftrag für John Adams endete in Enttäuschung, was ihn zeitweise die Malerei aufgeben ließ. Dennoch schuf er Werke wie das „House of Representatives“ und ein Porträt Lafayettes. Er war Mitbegründer und erster Präsident der National Academy of Design. Sein Gemälde „Gallery of the Louvre“ von 1833 war trotz kritischen Anklangs finanziell ein Misserfolg. Auf einer Schiffsreise 1832 wurde Morse auf die Idee der elektrischen Signalübertragung aufmerksam. Als Professor an der New York University konstruierte er 1837 einen ersten Schreibtelegrafen. Mit Unterstützung von Alfred Vail und Professor Leonard D. Gale verbesserte Morse sein System maßgeblich und entwickelte den Code aus kurzen und langen Signalen, die Grundlage des Morsealphabets. Politisch vertrat Morse nativistische Ansichten, veröffentlichte Schriften und verteidigte die Sklaverei. Nach der Patentierung 1840 überzeugte er den Kongress, eine Telegrafenlinie von Washington nach Baltimore zu finanzieren. Am 24. Mai 1844 sendete Morse die erste elektrische Nachricht „What hath God wrought?“. Private Investoren übernahmen die Telegrafie. In seinen späten Jahren beriet Morse beim ersten Transatlantik-Kabel und starb 1872.
Samuel F. B. Morse wurde in Charlestown, Massachusetts, USA, geboren.

Samuel Morses Apparat im September 1837. Beschreibung: The apparatus was described by Professor Leonard D. Gale as consisting of a train of clock-wheels to regulate the motion of a strip of paper about one and a half inches wide ; three cylinders of wood, A, B, and C, over which the paper passed, and which were controlled by the clock-work D that was moved by the weight E. A wooden pendulum, F, was suspended over the centre of the cylinder B. In the lower part of the pendulum was fixed a ease in which a pencil moved easily and was kept in contact with the paper by a light weight g. At h was an electromagnet, whose armature was fixed on the pendulum. The wire from the helices of the magnet passed to one pole of the battery I, and the other to the cup of mercury at K. The other pole of the battery was connected by a wire to the other cup of mercury, J. The portrule represented below the table contained two cylinders connected by a band. M shows the composing-stick in which the type were set. At one end of the lever O was a fork of copper wire, which was plunged when the lever was depressed into the two cups of mercury J and K, while the other end was kept down by means of a weight. A series of thin plates of type metal, eleven in number, having one to five cogs each, except one which was used as a space, completed the apparatus.
