  • Baron Johann von Berenberg-Gossler (born 13 February 1839 in Hamburg, died 8 December 1913 in Hamburg; né Johann Gossler), known as "John," was a German banker from the city-state of Hamburg and owner and head of Berenberg Bank from 1879 until his death. He was a member of the Hanseatic Berenberg/Gossler family and the son of banker Johann Heinrich Gossler (1805–1879), grandson of banker and senator Johann Heinrich Gossler and great-grandson of banker Johann Hinrich Gossler. His uncle was First Mayor and President of the Senate (head of state) Hermann Gossler. His mother was Mary Elizabeth Bray (1810–1886), a granddaughter of Samuel Eliot and a member of the Eliot family from Boston. Known as "John Bi" (B pronounced in English) by his friends, he was a Schöngeist. He loved music and the theatre, and wanted to study languages, literature and history. But his father had destined him to become a banker. After apprenticeships in England, France, North and South America, he became an associé of his father's bank in 1864. After the death of his father in 1879, he became head of Berenberg Bank. In 1880, the Hamburg senate granted him the name of Berenberg-Gossler in recognition of the fact that he was the owner of the Berenberg Bank (the Berenberg family became extinct in the male line in 1773, but the Gosslers were descended from the family through the family's last member Elisabeth Berenberg married Gossler, who died in 1822). In 1888, Johann Berenberg-Gossler was ennobled in the Kingdom of Prussia (although he was a citizen of Hamburg and not of Prussia) and conferred the title of Baron in 1910. The ennoblement was controversial within his family and Hamburg high society, as nobility (which did not exist in Hamburg) was frowned upon by the staunchly republican Hamburg grand burghers. His sister Susanne (married name Amsinck), exclaimed "Aber John, unser guter Name!" (But John, our good name!) Johann von Berenberg-Gossler was less inclined to take risks than his father, and closed the bank's branches in New York City and Boston in 1880 and 1891 respectively. At the time of his death, he was the second richest person in Hamburg. He was the father of Senator and Ambassador John von Berenberg-Gossler (1866–1943) and banker Baron Cornelius von Berenberg-Gossler (1874–1953). His son John von Berenberg-Gossler became a politician despite his father's wish that he would succeed him as head of the bank, and therefore had to give up his shares in the company. He was succeeded as head of the bank and as Baron of Berenberg-Gossler (a title tied to the ownership of Gut Niendorf) by his younger son Cornelius von Berenberg-Gossler. (en)
  • O barão Johann von Berenberg-Gossler (nascido em 13 de fevereiro de 1839 em Hamburgo, morreu em 8 de dezembro de 1913 em Hamburgo; né Johann Gossler), conhecido como "John", era um banqueiro alemão da cidade-estado de Hamburgo e proprietário e chefe do Banco Berenberg de 1879 até sua morte. Ele era membro da família Hanseatic Berenberg/Gossler e filho do banqueiro Johann Heinrich Gossler (1805-1879), neto do banqueiro e senador Johann Heinrich Gossler e bisneto do banqueiro Johann Hinrich Gossler. Seu tio era primeiro prefeito e presidente do Senado (chefe de estado) Hermann Gossler. Sua mãe era Mary Elizabeth Bray (1810–1886), neta de Samuel Eliot e membro da de Boston. Conhecido como "John Bi" (B pronunciado em inglês) por seus amigos, ele era um Schöngeist. Ele adorava música e teatro e queria estudar idiomas, literatura e história. Mas seu pai o havia destinado a se tornar um banqueiro. Após aprendizado na Inglaterra, França, América do Norte e do Sul, tornou-se associado do banco de seu pai em 1864. Após a morte de seu pai em 1879, tornou-se chefe do Banco Berenberg. Em 1880, o Senado de Hamburgo concedeu a ele o nome de Berenberg-Gossler em reconhecimento ao fato de que ele era o proprietário do Banco Berenberg (a família Berenberg foi extinta na linha masculina em 1773, mas os Gosslers foram descendentes da família através de o último membro da família, Elisabeth Berenberg, casou-se com Gossler, que morreu em 1822). Em 1888, Johann Berenberg-Gossler foi enobrecido no Reino da Prússia (embora fosse cidadão de Hamburgo e não da Prússia) e conferiu o título de Barão em 1910. O enobrecimento era controverso em sua família e na alta sociedade de Hamburgo, como nobreza. (que não existia em Hamburgo) era desaprovada pelos grandões republicanos de Hamburgo. Sua irmã Susanne, casada com Amsinck, exclamou "Aber John, nome mais incerto!" Johann von Berenberg-Gossler estava menos inclinado a correr riscos do que seu pai e fechou as agências do banco na cidade de Nova York e Boston em 1880 e 1891, respectivamente. No momento de sua morte, ele era a segunda pessoa mais rica de Hamburgo. Ele foi o pai do senador e embaixador John von Berenberg-Gossler (1866-1943) e do banqueiro Barão Cornelius von Berenberg-Gossler (1874-1953). Seu filho John von Berenberg-Gossler tornou-se político, apesar do desejo de seu pai de sucedê-lo como chefe do banco e, portanto, teve que desistir de suas ações na empresa. Ele foi sucedido como chefe do banco e como Barão de Berenberg-Gossler (um título vinculado à propriedade de Gut Niendorf) por seu filho mais novo Cornelius von Berenberg-Gossler. (pt)
