Carl Timmerman (born March 15, 1828 in Rheine ; † May 22, 1904 there ) was an entrepreneur and member of the German Reichstag .

Life

Timmerman attended the Progymnasium in Rheine and the high school in Aachen and stayed in England from 1847 to 1849 to study the cotton industry. He was a partner in the company C. Kümpers and Timmerman (cotton spinning and weaving mill), also known as CKT Rheine. This was founded in 1835 by Carl Kümpers and Jan Friedrich Timmerman. Timmerman was also city councilor of the city of Rheine and district deputy.

From 1881 to 1884 and from 1885 to 1903 he was a member of the German Reichstag for the constituency of Münster 1 region ( Tecklenburg , Steinfurt , Ahaus ) and the German Center Party . For the first time, Timmerman was elected to the Reichstag in a substitute election on December 15, 1881, as Baron von Schorlemer-Alst, who was elected in the ordinary elections, rejected the mandate because of double elections. In the Reichstag election in 1884, Schorlemer-Alst was re-elected, but on April 14, 1885, he resigned his mandate for health reasons, so that on May 15, 1885 Timmerman was re-elected in a replacement election. In the following elections, Timmerman was put up directly in the first ballot as a candidate for the Center Party and represented the constituency in the Reichstag until 1903. In the Reichstag elections in 1893 and 1898, a second candidate for the center was nominated against Timmerman by the “Election Committee for the Center Farmers”. For a short time he was also a member of the Prussian House of Representatives from January to May 1885 .
