Johann Carl Heinrich Hagemeister (born September 4, 1796 in Stralsund ; † November 16, 1860 there ) was a German lawyer and mayor of Stralsund.

Life

The eldest son of the lawyer and later government councilor Carl Friedrich Hagemeister (1766–1836) was initially taught by private tutors and then attended high school in Katharinenkloster . In 1815 he went to the University of Göttingen , where he studied law with Gustav von Hugo , Meister and Georg Arnold Heise . In the spring of 1817 he moved to the University of Heidelberg , where he joined the local fraternity. The following year he went to the University of Greifswald , where he passed the examination as a notary and lawyer at the end of November 1818. On March 31, 1819, he was admitted to the court of law.

He then went to Stralsund to work as a practical lawyer. In 1824 he was elected to the Stralsund city council. He became an assessor in the lower court and a member of various inspections of municipal institutions. In 1825 he became inspector of the orphanage and legal advisor at the main customs office. In 1827 he took over the management of the entire poor welfare of the city. From 1834 he was part of the combing inspection department and from 1836 took over the management of the tax and quarters chamber. In 1838 he became a member of the Orphan Court and in 1841 director of the Lower Court.

In 1848 he was a member of the commission for the revision of the city constitution.

When Stralsund, like all cities in Prussia , lost its municipal jurisdiction in 1849, he was offered the direction of the district court or, alternatively, a position as a councilor at the Higher Appeal Court in Greifswald, which he refused. In 1850 he was awarded the 4th Class Red Eagle Order . In 1858 he was again chairman of the combing inspection and took over the interim arrangement for the St. Jürgen am Strande monastery .

Hagemeister was elected as a deputy member for the city of Stralsund for the 13th and 14th Provincial Parliament of the Province of Pomerania (1856 and 1861). In 1858 he was a member of the district commission for regulating income tax. In the same year he was appointed by the Prussian Minister of the Interior as a member of the commission for the revision of the city constitutions of New Western Pomerania . He was a chairman of the relief fund of the communal parliament of New Western Pomerania and Rügen .

He was appointed mayor of Stralsund in November 1858 and took office in January of the following year. He also took over the provisional work on St. Annen and Brigitten as well as the special church patronage over the Nikolai and Jakobikirche and the Voigdehagen church . He also kept the management of the poor.

Although his health deteriorated from the summer of 1860, he continued to work in his offices as far as his condition allowed. Johann Carl Heinrich Hagemeister died on November 16. He was buried on November 19 in the St. Jürgen cemetery .
