Samuel Morse was born in Charlestown, Massachusetts, the first child of geographer and pastor Jedidiah Morse and Elizabeth Ann Breese Morse.
Morse was also an early pioneer of Wireless telegraphy, inventing a means of broadcasting a telegraph signal through a body of water or down steel railroad tracks or anything conductive.

Morse Code, developed by Samuel Morse, is a method of sending and receiving messages using a sequence of dits and dahs, or more commonly known as dots and dashes.
The morse code is a amateur radio telegraphic communication device in which a dot is made by pressing a telegraph key up and down rapidly, while a dash is made by holding down the key for a longer amount of time.

Morse was born on April 27, 1791, in Charlestown, Massachusetts, the son of a distinguished clergyman and geographer, and he matriculated at Yale, where he developed a passion for painting miniature portraits, and a yen to study historical painting in England.
Morse soon enhanced his weak signal by setting up amplifiers of that signal on down the line, and by inventing devices to carry signals both ways on the same line.
Eventually, Morse became a stockholder in ATC, the Field-Cooper enterprise, and, now mellowed by a new wife 30 years his junior, and by the four young children in his second family, he began traveling to Europe, to Scandinavia and Russia where he received one honor after another for his invention of the telegraph.

In International Morse code, a dot is made by pressing the telegraph key (switch) down and allowing it to spring back again rapidly; and for making a dash (-), the key is held down for a bit longer period, that is, not spring back rapidly.
Samual Finely Breese Morse (1791-1872) an American Artist and Inventor, is credited with the invention of the Magnetic Telegraph and the means of communication over the telegraph, in 1836.
Radio amateurs while learning Morse code never try to memorize them as 'dot' and 'dashes' by mere visualization of the 'dot' (.) and 'dashes' (-); but they try to memorize them by hearing the tone and thus for easy remembering of the combination of codes they say dot and dash as di and dah respectively.

The telegraph is simply a system of communication employing an electrical apparatus to transmit and receive signals in accordance with a code of electrical pulses, yet it led the way for modern communications.
Eventually, the receiver was removed from the mass produced version of the telegraph as operators found they could very easily decode the electrical pulses without the help of the electro magnetically controlled pencil.
Samuel Morse’s telegraph had a major impact on modern communications and while today the telegraph has been replaced by telephones, it is still remembered.
