Nicolas Jacques Conte was born on the 4th of August 1755. In the year 1975 he invented the 'Pencil'. He was also a painter, an army officer and a balloonist. His birth place is Saint-Céneri-près-Sées in Normandy. He was very highly respected for his mechanical brilliance which was very helpful to the French army in Egypt. When the French Revolution started in 1789 Conte decided to come back and setup his own pencil factory.
It is because of Nicolas Jacques Conte that we have the pencil. He invented the pencil lead. He invented the lead as it was a request from Lazare Nicolas Marguerite Carnot. Conte not only invented the pencil but also the Color Crayons.
