Have you tried the censuses? 1851 would surely show James' parents?
From the 1881 census on familysearch, James was born in Liverpool, and appears to be married to Julia, born Devonport.
He is living with father-in-law and his family.
I can't find the marriage on freebmd or family search

Sorry not to be more help...

I have been trying to trace my mothers ancestors.members of the Ord family.Her father was aHarold Ord born 1907 and he lived in wallasey,merseyside.His father I know was a Charles Henry Ord born in Liverpool in 1874.As far as I know his father was a James Ord born in 1849 living in Poulton cum Seacombe,But this is as far I actually got.My research hinted at Irish connection but an old family member has mentioned Yorkshire and Scottish links.Is there any one out there that can Help.
Warmest regards to All julie
