Benjamin Franklin invented several things in his times, such as the Poor Richard's Almanac, bifocals, and the lightning rod. He was American.
Benjamin Franklin was related to the famous Folger family through his mother Abiah Folger. Benjamin Franklin was a 1st cousin 5 times removed of J.A. Folger, founder of the Folger Coffee Company. He was a 1st cousin 6 times removed of Henry Clay Folger, Chairman of the Standard Oil Company, and he was a 1st cousin 8 times removed of Abigail Folger. Abigail Folger was murdered in 1969 at the home of actress Sharon Tate by followers of cult leader Charles Manson.
Benjamin Franklin had a common-law marriage with Deborah Read. They did not have a formal wedding ceremony due to the fact that Deborah Read was still married to John Rodgers.
Benjamin Franklin was using a quote that has been around for many years, possibly dating back to early Roman times. Means: We all make mistakes, need to seek forgiveness and to persist devilish means to not atone for mistakes but keep making them.
