Based in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, he published the "New and Improved North American Almanac" (started by Francis Bailey in 1775), and assumed his father's company, Steiner, Albrecht, and Lahn. He married Mary Weaver in 1787, and they had one child. Jacob Eichholtz (1776-1842) was an early American painter, known primarily for his portraits in the Romantic Victorian tradition. Eichholtz was born in Lancaster, Pennsylvania to a family of prosperous Pennsylvania Germans and spent most of his professional life in Philadelphia. He is known to have painted over 800 portraits over the course of 35 years.
