Benjamin Franklin, 1706-1790
To introduce my article on the childhood of this famous gentleman, I want to quote from the web site"Benjamin Franklin, an Enlightened American" (see html at the end of this article): "What makes a leader? Intelligence, passion, strength, devotion, charisma, tenacity, perseverance, generosity, forgiveness. Franklin possessed all of these qualities and that is why he is considered to be one of the greatest American minds and a proud pillar of our national heritage. However, our affinity for Franklin extends deeper. He seems to embody and personify the American dream. Born the son of a candlemaker, few people would have surmised that Franklin would master so many disciplines. His story proves that with determination and dedication, success is within anyone's grasp. A leading American statesman, inventor, philanthropist, publisher, revolutionary, and thinker, Benjamin Franklin was truly the Enlightened American."

Thomas Alva Edison, 1847-1931
Although Thomas Edison's childhood is fascinating and fun to read about, I am sure that he was the bane of his mother. Today he might have been classified as hyperactive and given drugs to slow him down. Then, fortunately, he was allowed to develop into the inventor who, as an adult, won--on the average--a patent every two weeks.
