Portrait of Joseph Franz Bonaventure

Joseph Franz Bonaventura von Schönborn-Wiesentheid (also Joseph Franz Bonaventura Kilian von Schönborn-Wiesentheid ; * July 8, 1708 in Mainz ; † January 25, 1772 in Wiesentheid ) was sovereign of the Wiesentheid reign from 1754 to 1772 . In addition, he was Vice Cathedral in Aschaffenburg until his death in 1756 .

Life

Joseph Franz Bonaventura was born on July 8, 1708 in Mainz. He was the son of Rudolf Franz Erwein von Schönborn and his wife Eleonore Maria, née von Dernbach . Both parents had already ruled over the property in Wiesentheid: Maria Eleonore after the death of her first husband in the years 1697 to 1704, Rudolf Franz Erwein from 1704. When the father died on September 22, 1754 in his residence in Gaibach , took over Joseph Franz Bonaventure these.

In addition to his obligations as sovereign, Joseph Franz also took on other offices in various rulers. So he became Imperial Chamberlain and Privy Councilor in the Hochstift Würzburg and the Archbishopric Mainz, as well as Reichshofrat. From 1756 the count took over the office of the Vizedom zu Aschaffenburg and administered the Electoral Mainz office here. Würzburg also appointed him as a bailiff in Kitzingen and Gemünden.

During the reign of Joseph Franz Bonaventura, the Seven Years' War raged in the Wiesentheid reign . In 1759 troops moving through dragged the Wiesentheider pastor and the market judge away as hostages. The count initiated some enlightenment ordinances, so comprehensive school regulations can be traced back to him. In 1770 a ban on the export of grain was issued. Johann Franz Bonaventura died on January 25, 1772 in Wiesentheid and was buried in the Kreuzkapelle there.
