Below is Mary Henry’s picture of her father’s (Joseph Henry) galvanometer. The caption at the top reads: “Galvanometer made by Henry while in Albany and the one probably used in the great discovery of magneto-electricity.” By magneto-electricity, she means electricity produced by magnetism, or induction. This is a discovery generally credited to Faraday, but Henry made the same discovery independently at the same time. Faraday, however, managed to publish the results first.<\/p>\n
