Thomas (1766–1846) was a prominent American almanac maker, best known for founding and publishing The Old Farmer’s Almanac in 1792. His almanac became one of the most enduring and influential publications in American history, known for its weather predictions, astronomical data, and agricultural advice. Thomas, who lived in New England, had a particular interest in astronomy and meteorology, which helped inform the content of his almanacs. His attention to detail and accuracy contributed greatly to the popularity and long-lasting success of the publication. Robert Thomas’s Old Farmer’s Almanac was distinctive for its longevity and for having been rooted in practical advice for farmers and rural communities. The publication continues to this day, making it the oldest continuously published periodical in North America. Thomas himself remained active in the publication of the almanac until his death in 1846, after which it continued under various editors but maintained his foundational approach.
