Wilhelm Evers (politician)

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Wilhelm Evers (also: Carl Friedrich Wilhelm Evers or Karl Friedrich Wilhelm Evers ; * 1797 or 1798 ; † December 6, 1853 in Hanover ) was a German lawyer and city ​​director of Hanover.

Life

Wilhelm Evers worked in the royal capital of the Kingdom of Hanover , first as a city clerk in Hanover before 1836 he the Office of the City Counsel took over.

After the state constitution was repealed by King Ernst August , he had initially appointed the Oberamtmann Georg Wilhelm Ludewig Hagemann from the Wennigsen office to be the “Royal Commissioner” of the city of Hanover, but Hagemann did not swear in due to protests by the citizens . In his place, Evers took over the management of the Hanoverian magistrate on July 26, 1839.

On June 30, 1843, Evers took over the duties of city director of Hanover as the successor to the capable but often unpredictable Wilhelm Rumann ; an office that he then held until his death in 1853. Evers went down in the history of the city primarily through his level-headedness and his ability to convey. Even when, at the beginning of the revolutionary year 1848, the magistrate and the council of citizens were at the forefront of the Hanoverian revolutionary movement, Evers "put forward the justified demands in a more moderate form and otherwise played a major role in the ' constitutional ' course of the March revolution in Hanover".

family

Evers daughter Auguste married the school principal Hermann Dieckmann . Their daughter Luise (1852–1923) married Otto Grotrian (1847–1921), professor of electrical engineering at the Technical University of Aachen, son of the Privy Councilor Hermann Grotrian (1811–1887) in Braunschweig and Auguste Hüpeden. These two in turn became parents of the astrophysicist Walter Grotrian (1890-1954).
