Abstract
Description
This is an account book of Jones and Rammelsberg, cabinet and furniture makers who operated in Cincinnati, Ohio from 1838‐1845. Seneca Jones and his partner Frederick Rammelsberg operated a cabinet warehouse in Cincinnati, Ohio and produced a variety of cabinetry and other different types of wood furniture before dissolving the company in 1845. After 1845 Jones went on to start his own shop in Covington, Kentucky and Rammelsberg went on to found Mitchell and Rammelsberg, another furniture manufacturer which operated from 1846 until 1880. This account book includes handwritten transactions from August 1, 1842 – January 4, 1844 and details customers’ names, items purchased and their price, and the names of employees and their wages. Only the textblock remains of this account book, and there is no record of what the original binding may have looked like.
