Francis Edgar Stanley (1949-1918)

Francis Edgar Stanley invented the Stanley Steamer, a steam-powered automobile. In 1918, he crashed the car into a woodpile to avoid colliding with a farm wagon. The manufacturer met its match against competition with internal combustion engine vehicles, and was defunct in 1924.
