Life

The Protestant Gustav Petersen was born as the son of the factory owner Salomon Petersen (1764-1828) and Friederike Petersen, née Hager (* 1775). In 1837 he married Catharina Fuhrmann (born on September 16, 1812 in Lennep; died on May 16, 1871 in Naples). They had two sons and a daughter.

In 1865 Petersen resigned as a businessman and retired from business life. In the same year, the notables of the commercial class of the districts of Barmen and Lennep elected him as one of the supplementary judges of the commercial court in Barmen , which was newly established on January 4, 1866 . In 1866 he received confirmation in the same position before he moved to Naples with the family of his son Gustav (1839-1919), where he worked as a businessman for several years. Catharina Petersen, née Fuhrmann, died there in 1871. Gustav Petersen sr. returned to Cologne with his son, daughter-in-law and grandson Gustav of the same name.

After the retirement of the previous district administrator of the Lennep district, Emil von Bernuth, on July 1, 1866, Petersen took over the administration there from June 30 to October 20 as a deputy district deputy. His successor in the office of district administrator was Lambert Rospatt , who was married to Julie Adele Fuhrmann, a niece of the Petersen family.

Petersen last lived in the Alexian monastery at Mauritiussteinweg 59 in Cologne, where he also died in 1885.
