Life

After completing his school education and completing his law studies , Sebaldt began his first professional activity as a lawyer in St. Wendel in 1824. On May 28, 1825 he was appointed trainee lawyer and provisional supplementary reporter by decree. In 1832 he was only employed as a government assessor and was subsequently appointed judge. After the Principality of Lichtenberg from the Duchy of Saxe-Coburg-Saalfeld by State Treaty of 31 May 1834 Prussia had been sold, Wilhelm Sebaldt joined the Prussian civil service in the 1835th From 1844 Sebaldt was then used as Councilor and as a legal adviser employed in the Trier government before he took over as head of the Department of the Interior. In the revolutionary year of 1848 he initially still sympathized with the revolutionary movement, but was then appointed as acting Lord Mayor and District Administrator of Trier for the period from May 10 to August 15, 1848.

In 1849 he was appointed president of the government against the opposition of the population. After the first conflicts between the military and the population, Sebaldt tried to suppress the revolutionary endeavors in the people by means of a warning, the so-called rag decree . In November 1849 he had troops sent to Bernkastel , Wittlich and Bitburg together with government commissioners, and he had the press , associations , officials and the clergy monitored. When he tried, based on arbitrariness, to influence elections in 1855, he first encountered the disapproval of the Upper President of the Rhine Province, Hans Hugo von Kleist-Retzow . After he had been accused of doing things together with the constitutional authorities instead of pooling the forces of the conservatives, Konstantin von Gaertner was put at his side as head of the Interior Department. Wilhelm Sebaldt retired in 1863 at his own request.
