Thomas Crapper was a plumber and founder of Thomas Crapper & Co. in London
who, contrary to popular beliefs, did not invent the flush toilet. He did however do
much to pioneer the popularity of the toilet, and developed some important related inventions,such as the ballcock or float valve, thus producing the first one-piece
pedestal flushing toilet.
