Born in Dresden; son of Lutheran minister named Michaelowitz. His name given in "General List, of Articles", Dublin Review, April 1896, as "Dr. Michelowicz" and as "Michelsen (Michelowicz)". According to Boase, Modern English Biography (1892-1921) received M.D. degree from University of Heidelberg, 1827; on title pages of various of his works designated himself PhD. According to Boase, went to England in 1832, then lived in the U.S. for some years, thereafter in England. His H.W. articles indicate that he lived or travelled some time in Italy and in the East. Occasional contributor to Dublin Review and Once a Week. Author of The Ottoman Empire and Its Resources, 1853; The Life of Nicholas I, 1854; England:Since the Accession of Queen Victoria, 1854; Modern Jesuitism, 1855. Compiled The Merchant's Polyglot Manual, 1860; on title page designated himself member of Board of Trade.


A memorandum in the Office Book concerns what was, apparently, a confusion in the matter of payment for Michelsen's article of November 19 1853, and Irwin's article of November 26.
