Biography
Personal life
He was born in Christiania to Nils Svensson – a weaver from Värmland, Sweden – and Karen Andersdatter Killerud.[1] His brother was Nils Landmark. Contrary to some sources, he was not born with the name Landmark, but some of the children took the name as adults.[2] Landmark grew up with an uncle in Aurskog.
He married Jacobine Caroline Wind (1733–1833). They had nine children, although at least one died young. Their sons included Jens Landmark,[1] known as a military officer and politician,[3] and Andreas Landmark.[4] His wife, born in Borgund near Aalesund, was a distant relative of the brothers Peter Daniel Baade Wind Kildal and Peter Wessel Wind Kildal.
Career
Landmark worked as a bailiff (fogd) in Sunnmøre from 1804 to 1829 and was a deputy magistrate in Sunnfjord and Nordfjord. He lived on the Brandal farm in Hareid during his time in office as bailiff. In the center of Brandal, a monument in memory of Landmark was unveiled in the autumn of 1977.[5]
In 1821 he was elected to the Norwegian Parliament, representing the constituency of Romsdals Amt; he served until 1823.[6] His brother Nils Landmark served during the same period.[7]
Landmark was a key member of the Sunnmøre Practical Agricultural Society.[8]
Landmark died in 1839 in Ørsta.[1]
