Notes: With the exception of the Hoch-deutsch-americanische Calender, all the almanacs published in Pennsylvania for 1779 contain the same calculations and have most of the same astronomical notes on the calendar pages, and are clearly the work of the same author. (In the almanacs published at Lancaster, the calculations for the sun and a few for the bright stars are adjusted slightly in the autumn months.) The only almanac naming a real person as its calculator is Der Gantz neue verbesserte nord-americanische Calender (Lancaster), by David Rittenhouse.
