In which city was Alexander Graham Bell born in 1847

Edinburgh

Alexander Bell was born in Edinburgh, Scotland, on March 3, 1847.

The family home was at 16 South Charlotte Street, and has a stone inscription marking it as Alexander Graham Bell's birthplace. He had two brothers: Melville James Bell (1845–70) and Edward Charles Bell (1848–67).

Both of his brothers died of tuberculosis. His father was Professor Alexander Melville Bell, and his mother was Eliza Grace (née Symonds).

Although he was born "Alexander", at age 10, he made a plea to his father to have a middle name like his two brothers.

For his 11th birthday, his father acquiesced and allowed him to adopt the middle name "Graham", chosen out of admiration for Alexander Graham, a Canadian being treated by his father and boarder who had become a family friend.

To close relatives and friends he remained "Aleck" which his father continued to call him into later life.
