In St. Petersburg he became rich as an army supplier and ennobled by the tsar. With the permission of Emperor Franz II , he was raised to the imperial nobility on November 28, 1796 , received fief rights and from then on was allowed to call himself "von Dankenschweil" ( Privilegium Denominandi ). So he changed his name from "Wanker" to "Wänker von Dankenschweil".
