me of his mother, Isabel. The Neville family was at times the most powerf
ul family in England and remained in possession of Raby Castle until 15
69 when the last owner of Raby, Charles, 6th and last Neville of Westmorla
nd fled the country to Holland after the "Rising of the North" which he pa
rticipated in, along with Thomas Percy on the side of Mary, Queen of Scots
.
Assumed the surname of Neville (Nevile) on account of the great inheritan
