Life
Beyond the origin from the Westphalian Rietberg is not known about the family origin and education Wibbekings. In Lübeck he became the progenitor of a line of successful merchants who, as a family, provided several Lübeck mayors and councilors. He himself was elected to the council in 1522 and was multiple finance lord (1537–39 and 1542). In the course of the Reformation in Lübeck, it was up to him, together with councilor Hinrich Castorp , to notify the Catholic clergy in the city on April 9, 1530, of the agreed ban on preaching. In the course of the civil unrest during Jürgen Wullenweber's time, he was one of the councilors who had to resign from the city council on April 11, 1534 . On November 12, 1534 he rejoined the council .
Wibbeking was married to Gertrud Northoff , the daughter of the businessman Johann Northoff, who died in 1497, and sister of Heinrich and Christian Northoff . His son Paul Wibbeking also became a councilor in Lübeck and in 1560 also mayor of the city.
