1796ref. 000618NEW YORK. Fair with no dust jacket. 1796. Non-Book. On offer is a post-revolutionary 1796 operational ledger sheet of the prominent Dutchess County Amenia New York family of Captain Noah Wheeler. The ledger sheet details exactly how a post-Revolutionary farm family managed their wheat their assets debts and the passing of the torch from a veteran father to his adolescent sons.

Wheeler then in his early 50s was working in wheat production alongside his 15- and 18-year-old sons Thomas Newcomb 1773-1844 and Anthony 1771-1840. In autumn of that year they were producing wheat and kept this balance sheet to track details of their sowing and production external sales internal consumption financial balances and debts. The sheet also includes details such as who purchased the wheat what is owed to each of the three Wheelers or how much they owed.

On offer is a detailed diary authored by a farmer from Bedford County Pennsylvania that covers the whole year of 1889 and January 1890 an entry made for each day. Noah Blough 1835 - 1896 whose ancestors arrived to the U.S. in the mid-18th century from Switzerland was a prosperous farmer who moved to the Morrison Cove area from the Somerset County in 1870s. At the time the diary was written he lived with his second wife and three children: Maggie Orlo and Charles all of them are often mentioned in the diary. The family belonged to the Seventh Day Baptists Church of which Noah was an active member he was elected the first clerk of the Salemville church in 1885 and he regularly writes about attending Sabbath School and sermons at the German Baptist Church. The family was growing apples and plums corn and oats and kept cattle and sheep and in his diary Noah documents farming activities like plowing wood cutting sugar water boiling and the daily life of the family including illnesses visits of family members and neighbors trips to Enterprise Salem and Loysburg. In addition to wood cutting and field work in winter months Noah was making quills and spools mending clothes: "Jan. 7. Cloudy and rather cold and windy with some snowflakes. I worked in the house making quills the best part of the day". Every entry starts with a record of weather which was very cold and snowy that year. The entry of February 2 relates to the Groundhog Day "This was Groundhog day and it was clear by spells that the sun did shine that the groundhog seen his shadow. This is Orlo's birthday he is three years old." The prediction of long winter turned to be true that year on March 21st Noah as usually records weather: "Cloudy and snowed all day the ground was white in the morning and all day.". In May 1889 Noah writes about heavy rainfall followed by devastating Johnstown flood which killed over 2000 people: "Cloudy and rained all last night and all day very hard by spells. The water was very high it took fences and bridges away and tore the roads had the highest water we had got since we live here Johnston was washed away and thousands of people drowned." One of the Noah's neighbors lost his wife and daughter in the flood about which he writes on June 3rd: "Harry Aaron brought his wife and daughter home today which died drown in Johnston on the 30 about 1500 drowned". The diary contains many names of residents and businessmen who lived in the area at that time and members and ministers of the Seventh Day Baptists Church including the Kagarise Breidenthal Snyder Long Dittmar Fluck Fyock and many other.
