& there was light

The Light Fitting Me & my Mum don't like!!

The creator of the first working light bulb was Joseph Wilson Swan. Swan's house was the first place in the world to be lit by a light bulb (and hydroelectric power). He patented the light bulb in England.
Thomas Alva Edison improved Swan's light bulb by using a better incandescent material and a higher vacuum and patented it in the US.

Rather than fighting for the ownership of the patent, Swan and Edison formed the Edison & Swan United Electric Light Company.

In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.
And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.
And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness.
