Life

origin

Albrecht Friedrich was a member of the Pomeranian noble family Borcke . His parents were the Prussian colonel and heir to Cratzig in Pomerania and Perkuiken in Prussia , Justus (Jost) Andreas von Borcke (1686–1744) and his wife Katharine von Kanitz (1700–1744). His sister Henriette Gottliebe von Borck was married to General Albrecht Graf von Egloffstein . His brother Philipp Christian von Borck (1735–1782), served as an officer in the cavalry in the Prussian army .

Career

Borck began studying at the Albertus University in Königsberg in the summer semester of 1746 . In the period from about 1750 to 1757 he was a trainee lawyer at the East Prussian court . After six years of legal traineeship, he asked to leave in order to retire to his property . From his father's inheritance, he and his brother owned Perkuiken, Roddau and Adamswalde . Because of Cratzig , he compared himself to his brother Philipp Christian in 1760 and then sold it to General Wilhelm von Krockow in 1780 . He was also the heir to the rain forest and from 1777 to 1788 also owned the Prussian Garbeninken estate. The farewell was apparently not granted to him, because he was serving as the successor to Wilhelm von Massenbach († 1761) as district administrator in Schaaken from 1763 . On the recommendation of the Minister von Hagen , he was transferred to the general directorate for several months in the spring of 1770, but was then second director in Gumbinnen from June 1770 . After 1788 he was chamber director in Königsberg. He remained in this position until January 1803. He was retired with an annual pension of 500 thalers , but on top of that he remained one of the directors of the Königsberg Brewery Board with an annual salary of 100 thalers.
