Biography

Slave-owner in Jamaica, apparently dying between 1817 and 1819, not further traced to date. The naming of his estate (Newcastle) suggests that he was connected to the Ord family of Newcastle (see under James Ord), but the nature of the connection is to clear. The will of John Ord MP (1729-1814), James Ord's nephew and residuary heir, is silent on property on Jamaica.
