Johann Nicolaus Führsen
Johann Nicolaus Führsen (born March 24, 1678 in Hamburg , † around 1769 in Schleswig ) was a German pastor.
Live and act
The ancestors of Johann Nicolaus Führsen in the Hamburg line went back to Johannes Fürsen and in Schleswig-Holstein to Hieronymus Fuerssen (around 1645–1720), who came from the Hamburg line as the son of a carter.
In 1706 Führsen took over a pastor's position in Wanderup . In 1711 the community of Bovenau was added. In 1712 he followed Heinrich Johnson as a preacher at the Preetz monastery . At the coveted place of activity, he initiated a second poor fund in 1726 and a first poor order in 1728.
Führsen asked the higher ecclesiastical authority, largely unsuccessfully, to sing the choir's Latin songs in German in the future. A decree of the emperor was only issued after his death on February 26, 1777.
family
On May 10, 1707, Führsen married Katharina Elisabeth Magelsen (* December 13, 1681; † around 1769), whose father Johann Magelsen came from Hamburg. The couple had five sons and two daughters. The royal Danish personal medic Joachim Fürsen was one of his sons . One of his sons-in-law was Peter Hensler, whose brother Friedrich Führsen took over the position of preacher. Other well-known children-in-law were P. Hensler and CJH Dreyer.
