L6'hr, Johann Andreas Christian (1764-1823) 
Kayser, Bucher-lexikon, 3:581-582, gives more than a 
page of titles under his name, with references a]so to 
numerous anonymous and pseudonymous publications such 
as ”Der Aufrichtige Baumgartner’* (Halle, 1801) and works 
under pseud, of J, C, F, Muller, 
Larousse, Grande Diet, Univ, 10: 617, gives name as 
’’Jean-Andre-Chretien, ” b,1764, d,1823, and mentions a 
niffiiber of his works, besides which he is said to have 
written "opuscules’* on horticulture and the vine, 
A peculiar confusion exists with regard to his work; 
Kayser, Bucher-lexicon, gives nearly a page of general 
works under the nam.e Lohr, but enters all his horticul¬ 
tural writings xmder the pseud, J, C, F. Muller, or 
under their titles, and also gives the work entitled: 
"Der ehrliche baum- u. kuchengartner,” "Vollstandige 
u, grundliche garten-imterricht,’’ or ’’Der wohlerfahrene 
ba\nn- u. kuchengartner*’ (Kayser, 5:117-118) under Karl 
Friedrich Schmidt as another pseud, of Lohr, Dochnahl, 
however, p,142, merely enters under Schmidt, with no 
allusion to it as a pseud,, but agrees with Kayser that 
the ed, of 1808 was pub, "Mit, J, C, F, Muller’’* and it 
seems possible that from this circxamstance Kayser may 
have inferred it was also the work of L8hr, No other 
authority save Kayser has been found to connect Schmidt 
with LoTir, It seems unlikely that the latter would 
have published the many editions of the "Ehrlache ba\mp- 
u, kuchengA'rtner, ” etc,, under the pseud, of Schmidt, 
during the same period in which he was also publishing 
a work of similar content: ’’Anweisung zur zweekmas- 
sigen behandlung des obst- und gemusegartens’’ (1st 
ed., 1798; 3d ed,, 1820) ^mder the pseud, of -Muller, 
(MFW)
