Life
Marquard's father was a merchant and immigrated to Lübeck from Livonia . His older brother Johann Marquard had already risen to the position of mayor of Lübeck as a lawyer before him and died earlier in 1668. Gotthard Marquard studied law at the University of Leipzig . Then his Grand Tour took him to Livonia and Belgium, France and England. He then became a resident lawyer in Lübeck. In 1674 he was elected to the city council and in 1692 he was appointed one of the city's four mayors.
Marquardt married a daughter of the councilor Jürgen Wibbeking . After his death, an epitaph was set for him in the Lübeck Petrikirche , which is no longer preserved there. His son Gotthard Marquard , who also died in 1694 just five months after him, became council secretary in Lübeck.
