Charles Blackett-Ord

Archdeacon of Northumberland from 1917 to 1931

Charles Edward Blackett-Ord,[1] (16 September 1858 – 16 July 1931) was Archdeacon of Northumberland from 1917 to 1931.

Born in Grosvenor Square, London into an ecclesiastical family[2] on 16 September 1858, Blackett-Ord was educated at Marlborough College and Corpus Christi College, Oxford. He was ordained deacon in 1882[3] and priest the following year [4] and began his career with curacies in South Shields and Ryton.[5] He held incumbencies at Ovingham,[6][7] Newburn,[8] Stamfordham and Rothbury[9][10] before his Archdeacon’s appointment.[11] He was appointed honorary chaplain to the Northumberland Hussars, a Yeomanry regiment based in Newcastle upon Tyne, on 23 August 1902.[12]

A keen amateur cricketer,[13] Blackett-Ord died in post on 16 July 1931.[14]

He married twice: firstly in 1887, Mary Delaval the only daughter of the Rev. Thomas Henry Chester, Rector of Ryton, with whom he had one daughter; and secondly in 1927, Grace Marcia, daughter of the Rev. Dixon Dixon Brown.
