Cord Vegesack (born September 14, 1609 in Reval , † October 16, 1697 in Hamburg ) was a German merchant , senior citizen and councilor in Hamburg.

Live and act

Vegesack was born in Reval and came to Hamburg as a sheet dealer . Here he was on August 16, 1648 to the Viehaccise , on October 5, 1651 to the Bieraccise, on September 14, 1653 to the Weinaccise, 1655 as a citizen of fortification and war commissioner , in 1656 as a commercial judge to the lower court , in 1661 to the jurate , 1664 to the Artillery citizen and elected to the treasury in 1667 . In 1669 he became the first provisional at the spinning house . On February 16, 1674 he was chosen for the late Magnus Hornmann (1596-1674) senior elder of the parish of St. Nikolai .

As senior senior, Vegesack was one of the 26 deputies who concluded the Windischgrätzer Recess on April 2, 1674 . The imperial envoy, Count Gottlieb von Windisch-Grätz , came to Hamburg on February 19, 1674. He should settle the disputes between the council and the citizenry . With the mediation of Count Windisch-Grätz, the council concluded a settlement with the citizens.

In 1676 Vegesack was elected councilor and in 1692 as a colonel to head the vigilante group in the parish of Sankt Michaelis .

In 1694 it turned out that Marx Meyer had defrauded the Hamburg bank with the jewels pledged on it. A commission of inquiry was set up for this purpose. On September 23, 1697, the citizens of Vegesack decided to remove his office as councilor because the two pledges he had used had caused damage. As a defense, Vegesack submitted his “ Kurtze simple-minded but still good news, from which two pledges ” to the citizens in printed form. The two pledges agreed to reimburse the bank for the damage they caused, whereupon Vegesack was supposed to pay the combing a fine anyway. However, since Vegesack died that same year, his heirs were forced to pay the penalty. Only an imperial commission clarified the facts and had the wrongly paid fine replace the heir.

family

Vegesack's father was the councilor in Reval Gotthard Vegesack. The mayor and Burggraf in Riga Gotthard Vegesack (1608-1687) was his brother.

Vegesack married Anna Maria Koep († 1648) on November 24, 1635. From this marriage come the elderly Guilliam Vegesack († 1697) and the daughter Antoinette Vegesack († 1695), who married the merchant Libert Widow († 1702) and was the mother of the mayor Conrad Widow (1686-1754). In his second marriage, Vegesack married Anna Bostelmann († 1658), widow of Gilbert de Vos, on August 23, 1652.
