Life

Mülmann, son of the Prussian Upper forester and government officials Friedrich Karl Ludwig von Mülmann (1775-1857) from his marriage to Sophie Johanne Luise Hartig (1779-1815), a sister of the forestry scientist Georg Ludwig Hartig , graduated as Dr. phil and in 1837 became a trainee lawyer for the royal government in Düsseldorf, where he made friends with the government councilor and statistician Georg von Viebahn . As a government assessor in Berlin , he married Pauline Blessow on November 23, 1843, who died childless. His second marriage was on June 30, 1857 in Mönchengladbach Marianne Bölling (1828–1898), a daughter of the banker Johann Peter Bölling (1773–1857), who had daughters Marianne (* 1863, from 1882 wife of the Prussian major Arthur von Barby) ) and Johanna (1865–1956, from 1889 wife of the Prussian Colonel Lothar von Bernuth) gave birth. Through his sister Emilie Auguste (1805-1884) Mülmann was from 1833 brother-in-law of the Düsseldorf history painter Karl Ferdinand Sohn , through his sister Sophie Pauline (1811-1887) from 1838 brother-in-law of the Düsseldorf genre painter Rudolf Jordan .

During his time as an assessor in Berlin, Mülmann was involved in the Association for the Promotion of Industrial Work in Prussia and in the Central Association for the welfare of the working classes , where he was elected to its committee in 1844. By 1850 at the latest, Mülmann was a member of the government council of the royal government in Düsseldorf for commercial matters. As chairman of a district commission, from the summer of 1850 he collected and checked registrations for items that were to be exhibited at the London Industrial Exhibition of 1851 . After the impression had arisen that the increased importance of West German products had not come to the fore at this world exhibition, he organized the provincial trade exhibition for Rhineland and Westphalia with the support of Düsseldorf's Lord Mayor Ludwig Hammers until 1852 . In the years 1864 to 1867, as a continuation of a work by his "fatherly friend" Viebahn, he wrote two-volume statistics for the government district of Düsseldorf on official order , to which various other authors contributed, including Ernst Heinrich von Dechen , Eduard Nobiling and Anton Fahne .
