Christian Ancher (27 July 1711 – 9 January 1765) was a Norwegian merchant, timber trader and ship owner. He was born in Søndre Land, was married to Karen Elieson, and was the father of chamberlain Bernt Anker, prime minister Peder Anker and wholesaler Jess Anker. He eventually became the largest timber trader in Christiania, and was also big in shipping. He is known for his home Paleet near Bjørvika, which later was used as a Royal residence.[1][2][3][4]
