The first marriage took place on August 29, 1780 in the Jakobskirche with Friederike Elisabeth Mohr (* 1750, † 1800), the daughter of his school colleague at the city high school, Johann Gottfried Mohr (* March 1, 1716; † unknown). This marriage produced eight children, of which three children probably died very early because they are not listed in the Genealogical Handbook.

The eldest son was the poor doctor Friedrich August Neide , husband of Maria Neide . The second son, Johann Georg Karl (born June 8, 1785 in Magdeburg, † September 19, 1834 in Lublinitz) was a pharmacist, initially leased the pharmacy in Nikolai / Upper Silesia and from 1815 was the owner of the pharmacy in Lublinitz / Upper Silesia.

The eldest son Georg Adalbert Ferdinand (1813–1882) was the owner of a manor on Seschwitz near Breslau.

The daughter Marie Adolfine (1819-1884) was unmarried. The youngest child, Adolf Georg (1824–1839), died at the age of only 14.

Education and professional life

JGC Neide attended the Magdeburg High School . Immediately after studying at the Friedrichs University in Halle , where he was likely to have studied ancient languages and Protestant theology, he took up his first teaching position as a collaborator at the cathedral school in his hometown on October 17, 1777 . He then worked at the Stadtgymnasium (Altstädtisches Gymnasium) from 1780, initially as its sub-principal, from 1784 as prorector and from February 8, 1792 as rector. In the same year the grammar school was closed and converted into a community school. On March 24, 1798, JGC Neide was also appointed garrison preacher.

In the course of the school reform initiated by Mayor August Wilhelm Francke (1785-1851) in 1817 under the city school inspector Karl Christoph Gottlieb Zerrenner (1780-1851), Neide was appointed to the school commission.

Schulstrasse 1 in Magdeburg from this time has come down to us as Neide's address .

From March 23, 1819 he was the first director of the higher commercial and business school, which was newly founded as part of the school reform, and later the Realgymnasium in Magdeburg, today's Wilhelm Raabe School.

On September 4, 1819, he took over the pastoral position for the communities of Giebichenstein and Kröllwitz at the Church of St. Bartholomew , which he held for 17 years until his death.

Honors

Clock from 1831

At the suggestion of Professor Sarpe , Neide was awarded an honorary doctorate in philosophy on November 12, 1819 by the University of Rostock.

On the occasion of his 50th anniversary of service on October 17, 1827, the parish had him made an oil painting (see photo above). The picture can be viewed behind the pulpit in the Church of St. Bartholomew in Giebichenstein. A second was in the Magdeburg city library, but has been lost. He was also awarded the Order of the Red Eagle, 4th class.

In 1831 he received a marble clock with the dedication: The grateful listeners from the communities of Giebichenstein and Cröllwitz in recognition of his services as pastor and preacher . The watch is still owned by descendants today.

Others

JGC Neide left a library that contained 8,500 volumes. These included books and magazines, maps and copperplate engravings from Neide's lifetime, but also from previous centuries, occasionally as far back as the 15th century. Almost all areas of knowledge were represented. The library was part of an auction on December 4, 1837 of a total of 27,776 volumes (see literature).

Epitaph

In the possession of descendants are two tomes with copperplate engravings (portraits of theologians, kings, electors), handwritten by JGC Neide, which he had bound for himself. They were raised by his grandson, Dr. Paul Siegfried Neide (see above - second marriage and descendants).

Neide's grave is still in the cemetery of St. Bartholomew in Giebichenstein.
