Andreas Aagaard Kiønig
Andreas Aagaard Kiønig (8 August 1771 – 1 March 1856) was a Norwegian lawyer and judge . He served as a representative at the Norwegian Constitutional Assembly. [1]
Andreas Aagaard Kiønig was born on Opaker Gård at Grue in Hedmark, Norway. He graduated as cand.jur. in 1790.[2][3]
He was elected to the Norwegian Constituent Assembly in 1814, representing the constituency of Hedemarkens Amt. He supported the independence party (Selvstendighetspartiet).[4][5] At that time he worked as a district stipendiary magistrate (sorenskriver) in the traditional district of Østerdalen.[6]
He was then appointed Supreme Court Assessor the same year. In 1836, when appointment of a new Chief Justice was due, Kiønig was a candidate,[6] but the position was given to Georg Jacob Bull. As a result, Kiønig retired as a Supreme Court Assessor. Kiønig was honorably discharged from civil service in 1837 and retired to Opsal søndre in the parish of Elverum in Hedmark.[7][8] [6]
