Daniel Heinrich Jacobj

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Daniel Heinrich Jacobj (born October 12, 1820 in Hamburg ; † April 18, 1886 there ) was a German lawyer and judge .

Life

Jacobj was a son from the second marriage of the Hamburg merchant Johann Carl Jacobj . After studying law and obtaining a doctorate in both rights , he established himself as a lawyer in his hometown in 1845 . In 1854 he became a member of the deputation for the administration of the Hamburger Feuerkasse .

On October 12, 1859 Jacobj was judge at the lower court . For the anniversary of the Hamburg Lower Court on February 21, 1866, he wrote a history of the court. This book is now considered to be the most important and most comprehensive work on the Hamburg Lower Court, as Jacobj himself was a member of this court and had access to documents that are no longer accessible today.

From 1867 to 1868 Jacobj was, in addition to his judicial office, director of the general pension fund founded in 1778 . On October 1, 1879, he became director of the Hamburg Regional Court and held this office until his retirement on December 31, 1882.

From 1851 Jacobj was a member of the Association for Hamburg History . He was also a member and secretary of the Patriotic Society from 1765 .

In 1865 Jacobj acquired the former country house of the shipbroker Johann Hinrich Brödermann (1739–1809) in Groß Borstel . He had a new villa built next to Brödermann's house and moved into it with his family. Many charitable festivals were celebrated in the associated park. The villa and park remained in the family until 1914.

In 1867 Jacobj had co-donated the so-called Oberalten Johann Carl Jacobj divine apartments in memory of his father . These dwellings were intended as free dwellings for "poor people who feared God, preferably widows or elderly virgins of Christian evangelical faith". The foundation , which came into being in 1869 , still exists today in the street named after the foundation at Beim Jacobjstift in the Hamburg district of Winterhude .
