5. Origin of flow charts

5.1. Wikipedia's take on it

5.1.1. The first structured method for documenting process flow, the "flow process chart", was introduced by Frank and Lillian Gilbreth in the presentation "Process Charts: First Steps in Finding the One Best Way to do Work", to members of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) in 1921.[2]

5.1.2. Wikipedia excludes Lillian Gilbreth here

5.2. MindTools.com gets it wrong

5.2.1. American engineer Frank Gilbreth is widely believed to be the first person to document a process flow, having introduced the concept of a “Process Chart” to the American Society of Mechanical Engineers in 1921. Quote from MindTools.com

5.2.2. Not correct! was Frank and Lillian Gilbreth

5.2.3. Highly doubtful he was first person to document a process flow

5.2.3.1. this appears to be a misquote from wikipedia
