Edvard Hagerup

Edvard Eilersen[citation needed] Hagerup (9 September 1781 – 29 March 1853) was a Norwegian solicitor and politician.

[1] Hagerup was born in the city of Kristiansand in Lister og Mandals amt, Norway.

During the formation of the Constitution of Norway signed at the Constitutional Assembly at Eidsvoll during 1814, Christie was secretary to the delegates managed by Christian Magnus Falsen and Hagerup was advisor to the Danish Prince Christian Fredrik, who was present.

[4] He was married to Ingeborg Janson (1786–1849), daughter of estate owner, merchant and court agent, Herman Didrik Jansen.

His father-in-law considered Hagerup the most likely custodian of his vast fortune and financed the transport of representatives from Bergen to Eidsvoll during 1814.
