John Fordyce

John Fordyce

("For the American dermatologist, seeJohn Addison Fordyce.")

John Fordyce (died 1751) was a Church of England priest who was ordained in Pembrokeshire, Wales.

Fordyce was posted to St Johns, Newfoundland where he appears to have had a fractious relationship with the residents after an initial warm welcome. In 1735 Fordyce asked for a transfer to South Carolina as a missionary. In 1736 he occupied his new parish of Prince Frederick, South Carolina.
