Life

He studied law at the University of Göttingen and became a member of the Corps Vandalia Göttingen. After completing his studies, he first became a city and regional judge in Dirschau . In 1837 he was elected councilor and syndic of the city of Danzig. From 1847 to 1862 he was mayor of Gdansk. He was a member of the city council of Danzig together with his Göttingen corps brother and cousin Karl Groddeck , and both of them were temporarily mayors of the city.

Tradition in student records

A first family album Schumann as a regular accountant with the period 1814-1816 is now preserved in the Biblioteka Polskiej Akademii Nauk in Gdansk. Another register with the term 1816 to 1829 is in the Göttingen city archive. He appears as a single bearer in the studbooks of other Göttingen vandals, so in 1816 in the studbook of Adolph Goetze from Neustrelitz and in 1818 in the studbook of the later Mecklenburg pastor Friedrich Johann Dietrich Augustin († 1862).
