Peter Plücker
Peter Plücker (* July 1688 in Elberfeld (now part of Wuppertal ); † December 1754 there ) was Mayor of Elberfeld.
Plücker was born the son of the Elberfeld merchant and yarn bleacher Peter Plücker (1658–1728) and his wife Anna Maria Teschemacher (1656–1737), the daughter of the three-time mayor Johannes Teschemacher. Plücker had only recently moved from the Teschemacher family's ancestral farm, the Teschemacher Hof , to the city, where he worked as a merchant. On December 6, 1742, he married Maria Katharina Volkmann (1690–1761), with whom he had no children. For his wife it was the second marriage after she was married to the former mayor Johann Kaspar Ophoff .
Plücker began as a merchant in Elberfeld, where he became a council member in 1745. In 1747 he was proposed for the first and only time for the office of mayor and was also elected to it. A year later he was city judge.
