Innate inside Erfurt near Eisenach (in the same birthplace & month of birth when Johann Sebastian Bach), Wilhelm Hieronymus Pachelbel studied by using his father. A number 1 printed information to either Pachelbel is within Johann Mattheson's Ehrenpforte. These are believed that Wilhelm Hieronymus served when organist at Fürth and inside Erfurt, so in Nuremberg, in 1706, at Saint Egidien the equivalent season, & was eventually appointive to his father's old post at Saint Sebald from either 1719 until his death.

Hieronymus published one portfolio of works in 1725 which included preludes, fugues, and fantasias. Bach's "Prelude in B Minor" was once attributed to Hieronymus. His couple surviving compositions come for keyboard.
