Life

Kannegießer was the son of Johann Heinrich Kannegießer . He was a mountain master , councilor and chamberlain, as well as post office administrator.

In 1727 Kannegießer was a cornet ( lower officer rank ) in a cavalry regiment in Prague. His father sent him 267 thalers through his brother in exchange so that he could procure a horse and equipment. His house next to the town hall in Brilon was called Cornett's house .

In 1736 he married and paid for his wife Charlotta Catharina Freusberg to the city catchment money amounting to 18 Taler. On this occasion he received shares in the hammer mill in Olsberg and parts of the property in Brilon from his father. He also received 802 thalers. After the death of his parents in 1748, he continued the company together with his brother-in-law Kaspar Heinrich Unkraut.

Kannegießer was a partner in various trades, a shaft on the Eisenberg was named after him Everhard shaft . He also ran two charcoal burners. In 1753 his charcoal maker Jost Wüllner achieved a total of 103 loads of charcoal, his charcoal maker Schmidt achieved 167 loads.

On May 12, 1742, Kannegießer wrote to Prince Alexander Ferdinand von Thurn und Taxis asking for a post office to be set up in Brilon and, according to the appointment document, was sworn in on May 21, 1742 in Frankfurt. He received the patent as a postal administrator of the Brilon post office. This quick appointment indicates important advocates at the imperial court. His superior was the Arnsberg postmaster Johann Wilhelm Arndts . In 1748 Joan Schickert Elmer was referred to as the postman .

In the council election in 1759 he was again elected mayor, but refused the election. It was the time of the Seven Years' War ; For years the city of Brilon and its inhabitants suffered from contributions , billeting, forced deliveries to troops and marching through. He didn't want to burden himself with the burden of office. For not accepting the election, Kannegießer had to pay a fine to the city, and the magistrate decided to exclude him from all city offices in the future.

After his death, his widow and son Heinrich Petrus Kannegießer inherited his fortune and continued the business.

He had a daughter named Sabina, who was married to the mayor and salinator Friedrich Anton Suren von Salzkotten .
