Note

An advertisement in the Connecticut gazette, Jan. 21, 1774, correcting a printer's error in the almanac, refers to "the editor of the almanack, whose calculations, under a different signature, have for several years been greatly approved of throughout New-England." - Attributed to Daboll in: Bates, A.C.
