New York Times: top 100 inventions of all time.
Wikipedia notes: The Band-Aid was invented in 1920 by Thomas Anderson and Johnson & Johnson employee Earle Dickson for his wife Josephine, who frequently cut and burned herself while cooking.
As to trademarks, wikipedia also notes: Trademark genericization eventually resulted in the "Band-Aid" trademark losing its protective status over the Johnson & Johnson brand, becoming a generic term for all adhesive bandages. The company attempted to avoid this outcome with an advertising campaign, but failed.
Note the appearance of the incorrect year at -- https://www.patentplaques.com/blog/?p=194 --: Earle Dickson was granted US Patent 1,612,267 for his invention on December 28, 1929. That site also mentions: Thrilled at the personal success of his invention, Earle Dickson brought the concept to his bosses at Johnson and Johnson.
