  • Notes 
    • Edward Nevill(e), 1st Lord (Baron) Bergavenny or Neville de Bergavenny, so created by writ of summons 5 Sep 1450; granted license by Henry VI to take possession of the lands of Abergavenny but in possession of the castle at Abergavenny for only a short while; married 1st by 18 Oct 1424 Elizabeth Beauchamp, according to later doctrine Baroness Bergavenny or Beauchamp de Bergavenny in her own right, and had issue. The 1st Lord (Baron) Bergavenny married 2nd 15 Oct 1448 his 3rd cousin Catherine, daughter of Sir Robert Howard and sister of 1st Duke of Norfolk, and died 18 Oct 1476, having had further issue. [Burke's Peerage]

      --------------------

      Sir Edward de Neville, KG, d. 18 Oct 1476, Lord Burgavenny; m. (1) bef. 18 Oct 1424 Elizabeth Beauchamp, b. 16 Sep 1415, d. 18 Jun 1448, only daughter of Richard de Beauchamp, KB, Lord Bergavenny, b. by 1397, being 14+ in June 1411, dsp in France 18 Mar 1421/2 (son of William Beauchamp, KG, Lord Bergavenny, and Joan Fitz Alan), and Isabel le Despenser, m. 27 July 1411, (daughter of Thomas le Despenser and Constance, daughter of Edmund, Duke of York). [Magna Charta Sureties]

      Note: According to the above citation, Richard de Beauchamp, "dsp" in France 18 Mar 1421/2, but had an "only daughter"!? (I assume he was "dspm".) Also the Bergavenny spelling wins 2 to 1 over Burgavenny.

      --------------------

      BARONY of ABERGAVENNY (III) 1450 (prior to this held in right of wife, Elizabeth Beauchamp)

      Sir Edward Nevill, a year after the death of his 1st wife, Eliabeth Beauchamp, obtained on 14 Jul 1449, licence from Henry IV to enter on the lands, etc. of Abergavenny, and, from 5 Sep 1450 to 19 Aug 1472 was summoned to Parliament as a Baron (Lord Bergavenny), by writs directed "Edwardo Nevill domino de Bergevenny militi", and on and after 30 Jul 1459, though he does not appear to have been seized, except for a short time, of the Castle and lands of that name.
