Life

Wulf Christoph Wilhelm Schwerdtfeger (1786-1851) and his wife Sophia Catharina Augusta Bartels (1791-1866), born as the second son of eleven children of the manor owner on Wensin and Travenort , attended school in Plön Castle . From 1838 he studied law at the Christian-Albrechts-Universität zu Kiel and became a member of the Corps Holsatia in 1839 . After completing his studies, Schwerdtfeger was initially a tenant in Gnissau and later a manor owner on Travenort in Travenhorst . After the sale of the manor, he lived as a private citizen, first in Hamburg and finally in Lübeck .

During the Schleswig-Holstein uprising in 1848 he served as a lieutenant in the 14th Infantry Battalion of the Schleswig-Holstein Army . After the duchies of Schleswig and Holstein were incorporated as the Prussian province of Schleswig-Holstein , Schwerdtfeger was a member of the Prussian mansion from 1867 until his death in 1889 . With the move to the Hanseatic cities of Hamburg and later Lübeck , he had to stop exercising his authorization, because this was only possible with a residence within the Kingdom of Prussia . Schwerdtfeger was married to Maria Sophia geb. Bartels from Borghorst. The marriage gave birth to a son and two daughters who were baptized in Gnissau between 1847 and 1853.
