re: Jane Bowes dau of Ralph Bowes m. John Ord... still no proof. Hodgson has no proof/sources in his publication that this marriage took place. He thinks John Ord of Newcastle d. 1721 Ann Hutchinson is a son of a John Ord who possibly m. Jane Bowes b. 1632 dau Ralph Bowes m. Dorothy Errington because this John Ord apparently inherited from the Bowes estate. Now which Bowes estate is anybodies guess. I am an Ord and a descendant of John Ord d. 1721 and have in 25 years of research of this family to date found no proof of this marriage nor of the DOB of John Ord d. 1721. That of course does not mean the proof is not there just that I have not found it. Regards Vivien Ord Martin
