After studying law at the University of Jena between 1793 and 1796, Schmid took over the editorship of the Bayreuth political newspaper from 1797 to 1804. In addition to his editorial work, he joined the civil service in 1799 - initially in Bayreuth, where he became a criminal councellor in 1803 and a municipal court councellor in 1804 - and from 1807 in Hildburghausen, where he worked as a government and consistorial councellor.

After completing his schooling, he took up an apprenticeship with pharmacist Blättermann at the Adler Pharmacy in his home town.

After holding various professional positions in Germany and Switzerland, he enrolled at the University of Jena on 25 October 1844. He passed the state examination as a pharmacist and took up a teaching position for chemistry at the Agricultural Institute of Jena University in 1847. In 1854, Ludwig succeeded Heinrich Wackenroder as associate professor of chemistry and head of the Chemical-Pharmaceutical Institute at the University of Jena. In the same year, he was appointed pharmacy auditor in the Grand Duchy of Saxony-Weimar and Eisenach as well as an associate member of the Grand Ducal Medicinal Commission for chemical and pharmaceutical matters. From 1863 he was also editor of the journal "Archiv der Pharmazie".

Hermann Ludwig had been married to Louise Therese Amalie Nanny Steinert (1832-1900) from Wenigenjena since 1 May 1855. The marriage resulted in several children. Ludwig died after a long illness on 6 January 1873 "at eleven and ½ o'clock in the evening".

Franz Jordan von Ried, Prof. Dr. med.

Surgeon; honorary citizen of Jena since 1882

* Feb. 11, 1810 in Kempten/Bavaria

† 11.06.1895 in Jena

The words of the then Prorector of the University of Jena on the death of Prof. em. Franz Jordan von Ried characterize his work and high reputation in Jena:

" ...The outstanding scientific achievements and the sterling character traits of the deceased do not require my praise, since the former are subject to more competent judgment, the latter are universally known..."

His father, a Royal Bavarian District Court Assessor, often had to change his place of residence for official reasons, among others to Erlangen, where he became a district and city court councilor. Here Franz attended elementary school and high school and passed the Abitur. By this time he was already an orphan, his mother having died in 1818 and his father in 1828.

In the same year he began his medical studies in Erlangen and after a short change to Würzburg he completed his studies in Erlangen in July 1832 and already graduated in September 1832 in Erlangen with the distinction "excellent".

After several assistantships, he passed the medical state examination (today's specialist examination) in Bamberg and Munich in 1835.

In 1846 he was appointed to Jena (professorship of surgery) and in that year he married Katharina Stolz from Erlangen. In the marriage 6 children were born.

Together with Dr. August Siebert, he eliminated the deficiencies at the state hospital and reorganized the clinic.

Franz Ried established the surgical department in Jena, so that the medical patients were separated from the surgical patients. He built an operating room together with August Siebert.

Ried was a member of the Senate in 1846 and Dean of the Faculty of Medicine from 1849-1883.

From 1858 he acted as director of the Surgery and Ophthalmology Clinic together with the Polyclinic of the State Hospital; he also lectured on eye-ear and skin diseases, the University of Jena had no representatives for this. Ried was a proponent of the specialization of medicine and conducted animal experiments in Jena. Franz Ried introduced chloroform and ether anesthesia.

In 1892, he was awarded the title of nobility by the Weimar court, as well as the titles of Geheimer Hofrat (Privy Councillor) and Prof. med. as well as several orders.

Franz von Ried belonged to the university for 49 years as a surgeon and representative of the new generation of physicians who had freed themselves from natural philosophical speculation. He made increasing use of scientific knowledge, e.g. morphine for pain relief, and technical achievements: stimulation current for treatment, the concave mirror for illumination at the operating table, Zeiss microscopes for tissue examination in medical practice.

Franz Jordan von Ried died at the age of 85 and was buried in the family grave next to his wife and two of his six children.

Christian Johann W. Beyer

Brick mill owner;

* 10.05.1821 in Oberkamsdorf (Traettner estate)

† 26.12.1885 in Jena

Lizenz:CC BY-NC-SA 4.0

Widower of Priska Beyer, née Rothe

* 26.07.1834 in Kleineutersdorf

† 15.01.1866 in Jena

and since 1867 in second marriage married to Henriette Maria Ernestine, née Wetzel

* 04.09.1836 in Roschütz/Gera

† 18.01.1902 in Jena

The brick mill got its name from the neighboring brick gate and brick kiln and was given in fief by the sovereign to Heinrich Gramleib and his wife Thele in 1372.

In the Jena Geschossbuch of 1406 it is mentioned that the next tenant was Albrecht Schleiz/Slouwiez, a Jena councilor. He was mentioned in 1384 as "judge of the court of our lords, the margraves, at Jena".

The brick mill was the first mill to be reached from the town. It was one of the nine mills located on the Leutra River. The ownership of the mill was passed down through generations in the family, as late as 1526 Christina Schleiz is mentioned as a feudal lord. The brick mill was both a flour and oil mill.

Several changes of ownership followed until 1583, when Professor Matthias Köhler /Colerus bought and renovated the mill. From his heirs, the brick mill was acquired around 1616 by Professor Johann Gerhard. The importance of the Gerhard family in Jena at that time also led to the fact that the brick mill was also named "Gerhardsmühle". After the death of his widow, the mill and other property were bequeathed to his children and grandchildren.

Further sales to different owners followed.

In 1852 the owner of the brick mill was Ernst August Beyer. On October 1, he handed over the mill and fields to his brother Christian Beyer for 11,000 thalers.

In 1871 the old brick mill fell victim to a fire, but was rebuilt.

When Christian Beyer died in 1885, his son Gustav Beyer succeeded him as owner. But with the construction of the Mühltal water pipeline came the end of the Leutra mills. Gustav Beyer tried to continue operation by converting to steam operation in 1894. However, this proved to be an uneconomical venture, and operations were discontinued altogether.

Friedrich Ortloff (1797-1868)

Legal Practitioner

Friedrich Ortloff was born on 10 October 1797 in Erlangen as son of the shoemaker and later professor of philosophy Johann Andreas Ortloff (1769-1828) and his wife Anna Elisabeth Sophie, née Dürr.

In 1803 the family moved to Coburg, where Ortloff attended grammar school from 1809. On 4 May 1814, he enrolled as a law student at the University of Jena. He continued his studies in Göttingen in 1815 and in Erlangen in 1815/16. In Erlangen he also received his doctorate in philosophy in 1816 and his doctorate in law in 1818.

In September 1819 Ortloff was appointed professor of law at the University of Jena. At the same time he was an associate judge at the Jena Schöppenstuhl until 1825. From 1826 he worked at the Higher Appeal Court (Oberappellationsgericht) in Jena, initially as a non-academic councellor and later, by decree of 15 March 1844, as its president. From 1826 to 1844 he also gave lectures as an honorary professor at the University of Jena. In the 1840s and 1850s he was involved in the drafting of numerous laws, including the Civil Code for Saxony.

Friedrich Ortloff died on 10 October 1868 in Jena. He was married in his first marriage to Amalie Stark (1800-1833) and in his second marriage to Christine Caroline Louise Stark (1805-1883). He left behind four children from his first marriage, three children from his second marriage and his second wife.

Ignaz Franz Xaver Schömann (1807-1864)

Physician

Ignaz Franz Xaver Schömann was born in Wetzlar on May 9, 1807, the son of the jurist Franz Joseph Constantin Schömann and his wife Charlotte Reinhard. After attending grammar school in Weimar, he began studying medicine in Jena in October 1826, earning his doctorate there in 1832. He then worked as an assistant doctor at the Jena state sanatoriums. His habilitation followed in 1835. He then worked first as a private lecturer and from 1837 as an associate professor in Jena. In the course of his work at the university he gave lectures in pharmacology, surgery, bandaging techniques and ophthalmology. From 1839, Schömann was also a city and public health officer. In 1846 he was appointed full honorary professor. From April 1859 he was also director of the insane asylum in Jena.

Schömann wrote several medical textbooks, including a "Textbook of Pharmaceutics". During his life he repeatedly undertook educational journeys that took him to numerous German cities as well as to London and Paris. During a trip to Cologne, he died there on September 16, 1864 as a result of a stroke.
