This database of US Patents was compiled by my friend (and noted aviation history scholar) Simine Short. The list covers the period from 1799 through the end of 1909. Most patents can be accessed through the US Patent and Trademark Office by clicking on the patent number. This will bring up a new window into the USPTO website. Click on the "images" button to view the patent.
The list was compiled using four primary sources:
1] Octave Chanute Papers, Manuscript Division, Library of Congress.
2] United States Aeronautical Patents, specifications of patents granted by the United States Patent Office. National Air & Space Museum Archive.
3] Robert Morrison Nelson (1910). Aeroplane Patents. London.
4] Official Gazette of the United States Patent Office, published weekly by the United States Patent Office, starting in 1875, ceased in 1975.
Simine and I welcome any additions or corrections to this list. Just send mail.
