The Selmayr family from Bogenhausen, who owned rich farms and land, was one of the respected “Loambarons” (“clay barons”) in the Munich area. In 1868 he took over the "Hanslmarterhof" from his father. Josef Selmayr Jr. was the last mayor of the municipality of Bogenhausen from 1882 until it was incorporated into Munich on January 1, 1892. He reached the incorporation resolution in agreement with the majority of the community citizens as well as its approval by the Prince Regent Luitpold beforehand in December 1891. Selmayr was then a member of the district administrator of Upper Bavaria, an intermediate instance of the government at the time, and community representative of the magistrate of the capital and residence city of Munich. In 1878 Josef Selmayr Jr. married Pauline Wagner (1858–1922) from Haidhausen in Bogenhausen , daughter of the landlord Franz Paul Wagner and Ottilie Roth.

In 1894 he had a villa built at Möhlstrasse 12 , which he sold again a little later. The villa was later demolished. In 1898 he acquired the Schlossgut Erching estate , which is still owned by the family today, and later bred successfully refined country pigs there . The name J. Selmayr-Erching was mentioned in 1908 in the German veterinary weekly next to Felix Hösch (Neukirchen b. Seehausen) and the domain tenant W. Wulf (Gülze, Bleckede district) among the "important single breeders". There was also to read: "Apart from J. Selmayr-Erching not a single southern German breeder was honored with a prize and the collection prizes for cooperatives also all went to northern Germany." In November 1904, he sat down for the foundation of the county poultry breeding institution in Erding as an optional company of the circle upper Bavaria one in whose advisory board was appointed. Also in 1898 he had Paul Pfann and Günther Blumentritt build the “Mayor's Villa”, which is now a listed building, at Ismaninger Straße 95 . She was sold by her descendants in 1940. Josef and Pauline Selmayr had already sold the 16,717 hectares of land for the "Hanslmarterhof" to Heilmann'sche Immobiliengesellschaft ( Heilmann & Littmann OHG ) in 1897 . Where the "Hanslmarterhof" was located today is the Munich Finance Court .
