Andreas Ludolf Jacobi (born January 21, 1746 in Hanover , † July 22, 1825 in Celle ) was a lawyer and state syndic of the landscape of the Principality of Lüneburg .

Life

Andreas Ludolf Jacobi was the son of the Lutheran clergyman Johann Friedrich Jacobi . He first attended the school in Celle and from 1761 to 1764 the monastery school in Ilfeld . He then studied law at the University of Göttingen from autumn 1764 to Easter 1768 . In 1768 he was admitted to the bar in Celle and at the same time appointed auditor of the Burgvogtei Celle . In 1773 he gave up the law firm and entered the service of the knighthood of the Principality of Lüneburg. In 1775 he became their Syndicus and held this office for 50 years until his death. The Celle maternity hospital (1784) and the knighthood credit institute of the Lüneburg landscape (1790) went back to him. In 1792 he accompanied his sister Caroline to London , who succeeded Fanny Burney and became Queen Charlotte's lady-in-waiting and keeper of the robes . The return journey took him via Paris and Lille , where he made his first experiences with the French Revolution . His sympathies for their modern approaches were chalked up in his homeland, but supported by the sovereign. He played a significant part in the 1802 comparatively early adoption of the common division of the Principality of Lüneburg. Like his father, he was an active member of the Celle Agricultural Society, which he co-founded . During the repeal of the state constitution in the French era , he was royal Westphalian director of indirect taxes in Lüneburg, then in Uelzen in 1810 . In 1811 Jacobi became interim domain director in Magdeburg and in 1813 in Braunschweig . After the Wars of Liberation , he returned to the service of the estates. He was a Hanoverian court advisor and was awarded an honorary doctorate from the University of Göttingen in 1823 .
