A theory is an idea or opinion that is stated as true. He had many theories and he worked on them till he was able to create the telephone, hydrofoil, and the tetrahedral kite.
March 10, 1876 he created and made the first telephone call. Completely on accident!
1871 started working on a device known as the multiple (or harmonic telegraph), a telegraph transmission of several messages set to different frequencies. Early telegraphs could only handle one or two telegraphs at a time.
In 1870, the family settled in Brantford, Ontario, Canada. There, Alexander set up a workshop to continue his study of the human voice. On July 11, 1877 he married Mable Hubbard who had been deaf since she was a child.
Both his mom and his wife were deaf, hence the reason he was so interested in human voice.
Bell is credited with inventing the telephone; in all, he personally held 18 patents along with 12 he shared with other scientists.

Later in his life, Bell became fascinated with flight and began exploring the possibilities for flying machines and devices, starting with the tetrahedral kite in 1890s.
1907, Bell formed the Aerial Experiment Association with Glenn Curtiss and several other associates. The group developed several flying machines, including the Silver Dart.
The Silver Dart was the first powered aircraft flown in Canada. Bell later worked on hydrofoils and set a world speed record for this type of boat.
