Jokerim (councilor dynasty)

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Jokerim family (also Jockerim, Jogkgrim, Jochgrimme ) was a Dresden- based councilor dynasty that was one of the most influential patrician families in the city in the 14th and 15th centuries .

The family originally came from the village of Jochgrim , which later became part of the town founded at the foot of Stolpen Castle and was called the old town. Several Dresden councilors and mayors emerged from it. In addition, representatives of the sex are mentioned as hospital masters of the maternity hospital .

In 1349, the von Jochgrimme family owned part of the village of Kaitz as a margravial fief. In 1408 Reinfrid Jokerim (Jogkerym) , who came from the family, owned a field below the Ussemig ( Auswigk ) farm as a fief. Reinfried was also a council member for many years. In 1328 the name of a Johannes de Jockerim appears for the first time in the council files (document dated February 10, 1328). Johannes belonged to this until 1337. In the same year a Ticzce Jockrim is named as councilor.

Heinrich (Hannus) Jokerim

Hannus Jokerim (Jogkrim), who is not identical to Johannes named in 1328, was first named as a council member in 1362. In 1394 he was mayor of Dresden and in the same year donated a lake bath in the bathing room on Schreibergasse. In 1395 he transferred various interests to the altars of the Frauenkirche .

A Heinrich Jokerim is named as the issuer of a certificate from December 1, 1387 and was mayor of Dresden at that time. Since he is neither mentioned before nor afterwards in the council files, he should be identical to Hannus Jokerim.
