Life

Georg Dreves was one of the sons of the pastor in Döbbersen and later prepositus in Boizenburg Simon Peter Christian Dreves (1744-1814). He attended the city school in Boizenburg and the cathedral school in Schwerin before beginning his studies in theology, philosophy and aesthetics at the University of Jena in 1791 . After completing his studies, his first job was as a private tutor with the Mecklenburg-Schwerin house marshal von Both in Ludwigslust , where he became vice principal of the school in 1798. Dreves became a preacher at the Kalkhorst village church in 1803 and gave up this position in 1826 for health reasons. He moved to Lübeck and received the title of Mecklenburg-Schwerin church council during his time in Lübeck. In 1828 he acquired the Hoikendorf estate near Grevesmühlen, where he also died.

The botanist Johann Friedrich Peter Dreves , the state lawyer Detlev Friedrich Dreves and the Hamburg merchant and commissioner Johann Karl Dreves were his brothers. The poet lawyer Leberecht Dreves was his nephew.
