He was christened on 14 Oct 1666 in Berwick Upon Tweed, Northumberland County, England. ⁽¹⁴⁰¹⁾ He was a tailor before 1681. ⁽¹⁴⁰²⁾ He was a Cooper's apprentice between 1681 and 1685. ⁽¹⁴⁰³⁾ He was an Indentured in 1690. ⁽¹⁴⁰⁴⁾ He died after 1728 in Richmond County Virginia. He died in Dec 1777 in White Marsh, Virginia.⁽⁹¹²⁾ James Deboarde son of James Deboarde, soldr christened on 14 October 1666 in Berwick Upon Tweed. (FHC film #0453486)
Note: James Deboarde's age at time of christening is not listed. A few entries in the records do list the child's age. It appears the age of the child is only listed when the child was christened at a later date than the normal christening age of less than one year. This would suggest a birthdate of 1665 or 1666 for James.

1408 i. John DEBORD.
ii. James DEBOARDE was born before 1706.⁽¹⁴⁰⁹⁾ James, Jr is being carried here simply to record the info until I find where he really belongs. Assuming James, Jr was at least 21 when he brought the court suit in 1727, James Jr must have been born before 1706. This may be the same person as the James born bef 1666, who was also a Jr; but that doesn't seem probable since he is not referred to as a junior in earlier documents.

iv. Elizabeth DEBOARD was born before 1715. I've assigned Elizabeth here just to record the info until I find where she really belongs. This could be the same person as Elizabeth wife of John Debord, but that doesn't seem probable since John's mother in law kept him in his will. Assumming she was at least 14 yrs old in 1729; that would give a birth before 1715 and possibly much earlier.
