~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ Dohrn was born in Stettin, Pomerania, present day Poland, in 1840, into a wealthy middle class family. His grandfather, Heinrich Dohrn, had been a wine and spice merchant, and had made the family fortune by trading in sugar. This wealth allowed Anton's father, Carl August, to devote himself to his various hobbies; travelling, folk music and insects. Anton, the youngest son, read zoology and medicine at various German universities (K?nigsberg, Bonn, Jena and Berlin), with little application or enthusiasm for his studies.
