I am sure you know but the Neville name has impacted on the history of England in particular with the various family members holding titles of all kinds
The Neville ancestral homes being Raby Castle and Warwick Castle.
Worth pursuing if anyone finds a Neville surname in their own family history.
My Wife has Eleanor, sister to The Kingmaker in her direct family line and I have Katherine.
Hi Colin
Neville is on my maternal side of the family. My mother always said that she was connected to the Neville's of Raby Castle and The Kingmaker, I just haven't been able to find the link yet.
On my paternal side. I think that I have traced the Stickland's (my grandmothers name) back to Agnes Parr, my 14th great grandmother
I join the Strickland family with Ellen, but the Stricklands go back at least to the 1100’s. The Ancestral home being Sizergh Castle which is just south of Kendal. Sir Thomas Strickland was the standard bearer at Agincourt and the success there did wonders for the families standing.
Kendal is also home of the Parr’s and Agnes Parr was a Great Aunt of Catherine Parr wive of Henry VIII but once into the Parr’s you can go back to Royalty.
A couple of generations since Agnes and there is Katherine Neville and following her line through Ward, Gasgoine we get back into the Neville’s then the De Ferrers to Joan Beaufort, daughter of John OGaunt and son of King Edward III.

It's his first wife that was born in Sheffield. Daughters named Marjorie and Adelina would suggest that this is the right person.
