disputes the claim that Franklin invented it

Benjamin Franklin often gets credit as the inventor. However, rocking chairs existed prior to Franklin.

Though American inventor Benjamin Franklin is sometimes credited with inventing the rocking chair, historians actually trace the rocking chair's origins to North America during the early 18th century, when Franklin was a child. Originally used in gardens, they were simply ordinary chairs with rockers attached. It was in 1725 that early rocking chairs first appeared in England. The production of wicker rocking chairs reached its peak in America during the middle of the 18th century. These wicker rockers, as they were popularly known, were famous for their craftsmanship and creative designs.

Michael Thonet, a German craftsman, created the first bentwood rocking chair in 1860.

We all know that the rocking chair is a distinctly american passion, its origins, however, are less clear. Adding skates or rockers to the bottom of chairs probably evolved from the cradle and the rocking horse, which both predate the rocking chair. Apparently no one thought to apply the idea to furniture for adults until the eighteenth century.
