The calendar pages are based upon the work of John Tobler. The calculations and astronomical notes are identical with those in his Pennsylvania town and country-man's almanack for 1770 (Wilmington), except for the addition of a number of notes and some adjustment of the sun columns in January and December.

Though the Tobler almanacs issued after his death in 1765 have been attributed to his son John, the publisher's preface to the South Carolina and Georgia almanack for 1765 (Savannah) states that Tobler's calculations had then been completed up to 1800. The later almanacs contain no indication that Tobler Junior is the author.
