Hinrich Diederich Wiese (born September 2, 1676 in Hamburg ; † February 1, 1728 ibid) was a German lawyer , senior secretary , councilor and mayor of the Free and Hanseatic City of Hamburg.

Life

Born in Hamburg, Wiese attended the learned school of the Johanneum and from 1693 the academic high school . After finishing school, he studied law at the universities of Rostock , Halle an der Saale and Orléans . He completed his studies at the last university in 1701 with the title of licensee of both rights, returned to Hamburg via Wetzlar and settled as a lawyer in his hometown .

In 1710 Wiese was elected senior secretary and sworn in as such on November 10, 1710. As senior senior secretary, Wiese used the influence of this position to re-establish the unity between the council and the citizens after a long dispute over the Hamburg constitution. On July 31, 1716, he was elected councilor for Bernhard Matfeldt (1661–1720), who had risen to the position of mayor, and followed him, after his death, on August 6, 1720 to the office of mayor. Wiese died in Hamburg on February 1, 1728 at the age of 51. Michael Richey wrote his funeral speech and Georg Philipp Telemann composed the music for the funeral service .

Wiese was the youngest son of the Hamburg lawyer Benjamin Wiese (1621–1688) from his third marriage to Anna Catharina Beckmann (1634–1715), daughter of the elder Joachim Beckmann (1598–1663).

He married Cornelia Rodenborg (1683-1739), widow of Andreas Amsinck (1666-1712), on April 20, 1717.

His eldest daughter Cornelia (1718–1765) married the mayor Rütger Rulant (1665–1742) first in 1735 , after his death in 1744 the mayor Conrad Widow (1686–1754) and finally in 1755 the Prussian resident of the Hanseatic cities and the Lower Saxony district in Hamburg Johann Julius von Hecht (1721–1792). The son of the same name, Hinrich Diederich, died after just a few weeks. His twin sister Anna Catharina (1719–1785) married the future councilor Paul Paulsen (1704–1767) in 1742 and their third daughter Lucia (1720–1777) in 1751 the Hamburg protonotary Wolder Schele (1702–1785).
