More Facts About Benjamin Banneker
Benjamin had written a letter to Thomas Jefferson. I have found a website of the two note that were sent back and fourth. http://www.africawithin.com/bios/ben_banneker.htm. Also Banneker had written a Almanac.Banneker is best known for his six annual Farmers Almanac published between 1792 and 1797. In his free time, Banneker began compiling the Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland, and Virginia Almanac and Ephemeris. The almanacs included information on medicines and medical treatment, and listed tides, astronomical information, and eclipses, all calculated by Banneker himself.
