James Tuder or Tudor Nelthorpe (c.1784 - 11 June 1868) was an English local magistrate and landowner, principally active as a Justice of the Peace in Nuthurst, West Sussex.[1]
Born James Cowne, he took on the surnames Tudor/Tuder and Nelthorpe on inheriting the estate of Sedgwick manor in Little Broadwater from his aunt Elizabeth Nelthorpe.[2][3][4] By the 1840s he held almost 900 acres in total in his estates in Nuthurst and Little Broadwater.[5] As of the 1841 census he was living at Nuthurst Lodge with the family of Richard Mayne,[6] then Commissioner of the Metropolitan Police, who later served as one of the executors to Nelthorpe's will.[7][8]
