Theodorus Eberwein

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Theodorus Eberwein (* 1658 ; † March 13, 1708 ) was a German royal Polish and electoral Saxon chief forest and game master.

Life

He was the son of Cornelius Eberwein (1621–1661) and his wife Dorothea († 1669). Eberwein embarked on an administrative career in the service of the Saxon Wettins and was appointed head forest and game master at the court of Dresden . He headed the forest and game management in the official city of Annaburg , which was responsible for the Annaburg Heath , among other things . As head forest and game master, Eberwein was responsible for the construction of the new Glashütte Glücksburg .

In 1697 the communities Lebien, Plossig, Bethau, Zwiesigko and Grabo complained to the Electoral Saxon Office of Annaburg about him because of the hat and acorn mast forbidden on the Annaburger Heide.

On June 2, 1702, Theodorus Eberwein bought Ensign Wolf Heinrich von Carlowitz from his feudal estate, which was located in the Saxon district of Seyda . After Eberwein's death in 1708, this property fell to his son of the same name, who was then abroad. Furthermore, the two daughters Christina Dorothea and Charlotta Magdalene Eberwein, who had emerged from the marriage with Christina Elisabeth nee Günther, survived him. She was the daughter of his predecessor, the chief forest and game master Johann Günther in Annaburg.

His son Theodorus Eberwein was blamed for having been a hunter's boy on August 28, 1708 when a rifle shot was carelessly fired at a swallow, which triggered the great city fire in Seyda, in which 22 houses and the church burned down to the foundations. Eberwein had therefore fled the country. In February 1711 at the latest, he had come to an agreement with the burnt down in Seyda, so that they no longer raised any financial claims against him. However, he did not return to Seyda, but sold the fiefdom in 1715 to his brother-in-law, Captain Johann George Kraffel.
