Who is the founder of 'quiz'?

The term "quiz" is often attributed to a game devised in the late 18th century by a Dublin theater manager named James Daly. He allegedly introduced the term as part of a bet that he could make a new Word popular in a short period of time. The Word itself has since evolved to refer to a variety of tests of knowledge. However, the specific origins and evolution of quiz games have many contributors over time.
