Wilhelm Ernst Schwabe
Wilhelm Ernst Schwabe (born December 25, 1775 in Ilmenau , † June 3, 1851 in Weimar ) was a German lawyer.
Life
Wilhelm Ernst Schwabe was the son of the lawyer Heinrich Elias Gottlob Schwabe (* February 7, 1750 in Ilmenau; † December 12, 1831 in Arnstadt ), who later became the ducal Gothic lawyer and legal advisor and moved to Ichtershausen near Arnstadt; his mother was Johanna Christine Caroline, geb. Stötzer.
He attended the school in Ichtershausen and after its completion began an apprenticeship as a gardener in the palace gardening shop in Ichtershausen, although his interests lay in the legal field. He studied gardening during the day, but learned Latin and read legal literature at night. Six months after starting his gardening apprenticeship, his father decided to let him give up his apprenticeship and study law. For this purpose his father gave him lessons himself and prepared him for the state examination ; without ever attending a grammar school or university, he passed the state examination in 1796 and was employed as an official advocate in Wandersleben in 1797 .
In 1802 he became lawyer in Blankenhain and in 1811, after separating from his wife, he went to Weimar as court lawyer . From 1814 to 1820 he held the office of city clerk at the city council in Weimar in addition to the lawyer ; In this task he also headed the billeting office, which was responsible for accommodating the soldiers marching through.
In 1820 he resigned from the position of town clerk and was given the post of auditor in the grand ducal Saxon military, where he was allowed to continue his legal business. In 1833 he was appointed senior auditor with the rank of captain .
In January 1851, after 31 years in the military, he asked for his release and retired in March 1851, for which he received an appropriate pension.
Wilhelm Ernst Schwabe's first marriage was Sophie (* unknown; † 1816), a daughter of the merchant Köhler from Arnstadt; together they had a son and two daughters. In 1811 he separated from his wife, with whom he was on friendly terms until her death. On June 3, 1812, he married the widow Michaelis, geb. Gottschalk from Weimar.
