DAVID NEVINS LORD, the youngest but one of sixteen children of Deacon Nathan and Mary (Nevins) Lord, was born in Franklin, Conn , March 4, 1792. He went to New York City in 1807, intending to follow a mercantile career: but in 1811 his health became affected, and he was advised by his physician to seek a less active life. After graduating from College he studied theology in New Haven with Professors Fitch, Kingsley, and Goodrich, but was prevented by the loss of his voice and by ill health from continuing in the ministry. In 1823 having an excellent offer to embark in trade, he settled in New York City, and was for many years a successful importer of dry goods. He was also engaged in various important business enterprises, particularly in the early management of the N.Y. & Erie R.R. Company; and was a liberal contributor to many works of charity. In the great fire of 1835 and in the panic of 1837 he was a heavy loser, but later became again a rich man by inheritance from his brother Rufus, only to be again financially ruined. From early manhood he gave a large part of each day to study and composition on theological subjects, particularly on the fulfilment of prophecy, the true methods of interpretation, and symbolism. For 13 years (1848-61) he edited a quarterly, entitled The Theological Journal, a great part of the contents being contributed by himself, he also published a collection of papers under the title of Years in Theology, and various other works. He was married, May 8, 1823, to Eliza J , daughter of Underhill Lyon, of Rye, N.Y., then of New Haven. She died, without children, Dec. 7, 1841. He died in New York City, July 14, 1880, in his 89th year. (Yale University Graduates Obituary Records, 1880 – 1890).
