His parents were lord Rörik Tordsson (of the Bonde) and lady Märta Gisladotter (of the so-called Sparre of Aspnäs).
Tord Bonde was married to lady Ramborg Nilsdotter (of the Vasa family).
In 1403 lord Tord received an appointment as chatelain of Viipuri castle and county, at which office he would serve until his death.
Around 1411 Russians, having felt Viipuri a haven of hostile actions and aggression, launched an attack.
His other grandchildren included Tord Carlsson Bonde the marshal, and lady Ingeborg Ivarsdotter, who would become mother of five of the Tott Axelssons.
