Carl Gock’s Rechen-Buch

Carl Gock’s Rechen-Buch

Printed by Heinrich B. Sage in Reading, Berks Co., PA March 1823

The names listed below are the names of the people who subscribed to this Rechen
Buch, a small book with formulas and calculations for everyday commerce. There
are pages dedicated to money conversions, liquid measurements, weight
calculations, as well as complicated division and multiplication problems.
There are even word problems for calculating total sales from crops, when given
the number of bushels and the price per bushel. (This page was marked by the
previous owner with a bit of an old almanac for easy access)

My father acquired this book for me at the Leesport Auction, and I wanted to get
the names listed so that everyone could benefit from this book. I have no
additional information regarding the people on this list, with possible
exception of the WETZELs listed.
