Live and act
Schrick was the son of the lay judge Johann Albrecht Schrick, the elder († 1646) and Anna Katharina von Inden, daughter of the Jülich mayor Johann von Inden, and through the line of his grandfather Franz Schrick (1583-1639) great-grandson of Albrecht Schrick , the first mayor of the family. Due to the early death of his father, he was under the guardianship of his uncle Matthäus Schrick and his maternal grandfather Johann von Inden until he came of age.
In 1674 he first joined the star guild, the union of Aachen lay judges, and was elected to the lay judge's chair a little later. In 1680 he also became a member of the Sacramentary Brotherhood of St. Foillan . In the period between 1684 and 1700 Schrick was elected nine times to the "Great Council" of the city of Aachen, which was responsible, among other things, for general affairs, judged life and death and elected the new council members. Finally, in 1695 and 1697, he was elected mayor of lay judges together with Balthasar Fiebus as mayor from the ranks of the guilds. He then held the honorary post of "Christoffel" (envoy of the Aachen counties) of the Burtscheidertor county in 1696 and 1698.
Johann Albrecht Schrick was married to Theresia von Wiedenfeld († 1696), who gave birth to eleven children. Two of his sons followed their father into the jury, and several became Catholic clergy. The daughter Anna Maria (1693–1759) married the Aachen mayor Franz von Fürth . Schrick was the owner of several estates and lands in Aachen and the surrounding area and also acquired Kasteel Rivieren in Klimmen in the municipality of Voerendaal near Heerlen from the von Eynatten family in 1686 , which had come to the von Fürth family after his death through his daughter Anna Maria In 1910 it became the property of the Counts de Marchant et d'Ansembourg by marriage. Schrick's diary entries on the history of his family and his mortuary tablet are in the possession of the descendants of the von Fürth family on Kasteel Rivieren.
