I'm trying to find a chart of lunar and solar eclipse dates. Can anyone help?

Question by SiriusFan13: I'm trying to find a chart of lunar and solar eclipse dates. Can anyone help?
I'm writing a novel, and my main character is contemplating eclipses. The story is set in 1863 Kyoto, Japan. I was wondering if anyone has any idea where a chart may be that gives solar and lunar eclipse dates in this region for the 1800s. I know it's a weird, specific question, but I want to know if my character has possibly seen either of these events, or if he needs to be speaking from someone else's description of the event. Thanks!

Scroll down the page and it shows eclipses that have already taken place. Sorted by years.
