from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Johann Carl Jacobj (born October 14, 1780 in Lübeck , † May 16, 1847 in Hamburg ) was a German businessman and Hamburg senior citizen .

Life

Born in Lübeck, Jacobj came to Hamburg as a merchant and opened a shop with the later senior elder Friedrich Hinrich Suse under the name JC Jacobj & Suse . As a citizen of Hamburg, Jacobj held various civil offices. In 1809 he was elected to the Admiralty Customs, in 1810 as adjunct and to the purchase of flour, in 1816 as subdeacon and administrator of the orphanage . In 1818 he was elected as a commercial judge to the lower court . In 1819 Jacobj became a tax citizen , in 1823 a bancobit , in 1827 a deacon , in 1828 a jurat and in 1830 took over the administration of the hospital as head of the hospital . On April 18, 1845 Jacobj was elected senior elder in the parish of Sankt Nikolai for the late Georg Ehlert Bieber and held this office for two years until his death.

Foundation, endowment

In his will, Jacobj established the Johann Carl Jacobj Family Foundation . The purpose of this family foundation was to support needy descendants and siblings of his two wives. After his descendants died out, part of the interest should go to the Hamburger Allgemeine Armenanstalt .

In 1869, his descendants set up another foundation , the so-called Oberalten Johann Carl Jacobj Gotteswohnungen . These dwellings were intended as free dwellings for "poor people who feared God, preferably widows or elderly virgins of Christian evangelical faith". The foundation still exists today in the street named after the foundation at Beim Jacobjstift in the Hamburg district of Winterhude . The monastery building from 1929, designed by Distel & Grubitz , is a listed building.

family

Jacobj was married twice. His first marriage was in 1809 with Friederike Wilhelmine Sonntag (1783-1818), daughter of the Hamburg merchant and Senator Claus Hinrich Sonntag (1745-1818). From this first marriage comes the Hamburg merchant Friedrich Wilhelm Jacobj (1818–1881), whose son Carl Jacobj (1857–1944) became a doctor and pharmacologist. After the death of his first wife, Jacobj had a second marriage in 1819 with Susanna Henriette Dumas (1791-1841), daughter of the French Reformed preacher in Stade , Altona and Hamburg, Henri Georges Joachim Dumas (1761-1817). The lawyer and judge Daniel Heinrich Jacobj (1820–1886) comes from this second marriage .
