Johann Jacob Baur (Mayor)

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Johann Jacob Baur (born April 20, 1621 in Tübingen ; † June 22, 1706 ibid ) was mayor of Tübingen, court assessor and member of the landscape.

Life

Johann Jacob Baur was a son of the later lawyer in Reutlingen, Johann Philipp Baur. He studied law in Tübingen. In 1644 he married Maria Christina Laux, a daughter of the "Procurator stip." In Tübingen, Marx Laux. After her untimely death, he married for the second time in 1647: Susanna Neuffer b. Frisch (born February 23, 1618 in Tübingen; † February 24, 1694), a daughter of the court attorney in Tübingen and the town clerk in Herrenberg Salomon Frisch, and widow of the town clerk of Tübingen Johann Ludwig Neuffer.

Johann Jacob Baur had sat in the court of Tübingen since 1651, without it being certain that he was a member of this body at that time. Since 1652 he was certainly a relative of the court, since 1655 a member of the landscape delegation and a member of the select committee of the landscape. In 1656 he became mayor of Tübingen.

Baur enjoyed not only the reputation in Tübingen, but also with Duke Wilhelm Ludwig von Württemberg , because on December 1, 1674 he ordered the Vogt , the mayor and the court of the city of Tübingen that the mayor Johann Jacob Baur as a member of the narrow committee the landscape and all of its successors in this office are to be exempted from billeting and compulsory labor .

From 1675 Baur was also court judge and from 1689 hospital nurse. He held these offices - similar to the four others - until his death in 1706.

Baur was also the author of some writings. On April 26, 1687, he presented a copy of his collection Acta et compacta Tubingensia ... at the city's court assembly . It was then decided to keep the volume in "der Stadt Bibliothec" and to return the favor to the mayor with a gift.

After the death of his second wife, with whom he had been married the longest, he had two more wives, one after the other:

  • In 1695 he married Anna Margarete Riepp, b. Osiander, a daughter of Dr. med. Johann Conrad Osiander in Marbach and widow of the landscape occupant Johann Reinhard Riepp;
  • In 1704 he married Maria Christina Walliser, b. Stüber, widow of the court attorney in Esslingen Georg Walliser.
