Timeline
1798: Borgerskab
1799: Upon the death of his father took over the merchant house, and renamed it F. Tutein & Co. (BibLek III). At some time around or before the death of his father, Tutein had travelled to England and Switzerland to learn more about cotton manufacturing (BibLek III).
1800: Lent the sum of 40.000 Rigsdaler to extend the company's cotton manufacture (BibLek III)
1807: Gave up the cotton manufacture, in protest of the toll-tariffs of 1797 (BibLek III). Friderich Tutein thereafter continued the other activities of the merchant house, and became increasingly interested in sugar refining on St. Croix (BioLek III). Bech claims that "Tuteins garden" in Østerbro, close to Svanemøllen, had come under attack of the English battery in the bombing of Copenhagen". Whether this refers to the Rosendal estate is unclear, but it appears unlikely (Bech 1910, 80)
1807-1812: The Swiss merchant house House of Christoph Burckhardt & Co. in Basel purchased goods from Tutein & Co. at a total of 60242 livres (Fierz, 1994. P. 116-117)
1807-1814: The merchant house survived the war, and lent the state money during this period of time (BibLek III)
1808 - 19 April 1848: Named Prussian generalkonsul (BibLek III)
1832-1842: Chairman (formand) for Grosserer Societetet (BibLek III)

Winter residence was at the estate on Vimmelskaftet 47 (BibLek III)
From 1802: Summer residence was at the Rosendal estate in Østerbro (previously owned by Holmsted, Frederik and Iselin, Reinhard) (BibLek III)
From 1809: Owned the Edelgave estate, near to Ballerup (DSD). This was also named a "hovedgård" (DSD)
