    Biography
    Many efforts to produce an incandescent lamp were made before Starr, Swan, Edison and others did their work.

    The details of some of these might never be known. One such effort is mentioned when the name "James Bowman Lindsay" is typed into a search engine. James Bowman Lindsay (Sep 8, 1799 - Jun 29, 1862) was born in the town of West Hills, County Angus, Scotland and the claim is made on many websites that about 1835 he developed a prototype of an incandescent lamp.
