Daniel Larsen Schevig (1786 – 6 October 1833) was a Norwegian military officer and constitutional founding father.
He was born at the farm Gladsjø in Beitstad, and spent his career as a farmer on Skjevik farm. He was also a seregant in the Norwegian Army. He was also a member of the Norwegian Constituent Assembly, representing 1. Trondhjemske Infanteriregiment. Not much is written about him; Halvdan Koht notes that Schevig "probably" favored Norwegian independence over a union with another country. Schevig was married from November 1811, and died on his farm in October 1833.[1]
