Friedrich Schwab was born in Marburg and moved to Klausenburg, Transylvania when he was 21 years old (1879). He observed variable stars there, interrupted only to participate in the German transit-of-Venus expedition to Punta Arenas in the Strait of Magellan. Returning to Transylvania he became the University mechanic in Klausenburg, and continued the observations of variables. He left his post in 1891, and possibly went back to Germany. He is last heard of in 1918, when he was working in the Technische Schule in Ilmenau.
