Caspar von Voght was born in Hamburg. With his business partner Georg Heinrich Sieveking, he led one of the largest trading firms in that City during the late 18th century and travelled widely across Europe. Voght's greatest achievement was perhaps his reform of the welfare system in Hamburg. He was granted the title of Reichsfreiherr (usually rendered in English as 'Baron') in 1801.
