Joseph H. Smith was the inventor of the Lawn Sprinkler. I could not find the exact date or location of his birth, but he patented the sprinkler in 1897, so we can infer that he was probably born between 1840 and 1870. He was an African-American, most likely born into slavery. It is possible that he himself did not know his exact date and location of his birth. He is not to be confused with Joseph Smith Jr, the founder of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church), who was born December 23, 1805 in Sharon, Vermont.
