Johann Kerkring

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Johann Kerkring (* 1519 in Lübeck ; † September 28, 1595 ibid) was councilor of the Hanseatic city of Lübeck.

Life

Johann Kerkring was one of six sons (and 12 daughters) of Lübeck councilor Hinrich Kerckring . Possibly he is the "Iohannes Karckrinck" who enrolled at the University of Rostock in the summer semester of 1530 while still a child. He was elected to the council in 1559 and held the function of combing lord from 1581–84. In 1566 he worked together with the councilor Johann Penningbüttel as a bettor . In the period from 1572 to 1578 he was responsible for the administration of the two-city office in Bergedorf . In 1562 he was a member of the Lübeck embassy, together with councilor Gottschalk Timmermann and a council secretary, which traveled to King Erik XIV of Sweden to receive confirmation of the trading privileges of the Hanseatic merchants.

Johann Kerkring was married to a daughter of Lübeck councilor and mayor Paul Wibbeking and lived first at Mengstrasse 12, later at Breiten Strasse 13. He had been a member of the circle society since it was re-established in 1580. He was buried in the Marienkirche in Lübeck , where his grave slab is documented but not preserved.

His sons were the councilors Heinrich Kerkring († 1613) and Paul Kerkring .
