| Notes |
- Ranulph, or Ralph, Nevill, only son of Mary FitzRandolph, brought the name Ralph into the Nevill family, their descendants have filled the foremost places in English history. Their blood has come down to our day in veins of the Royal houses of England of Plantagenet, Tudor, Stuart and Guelph. When Robert Nevill died this Ranulph was still in his minority and obtained liberty of the king that his friends might plow and manage his lands, and in 13th of Edward I, 1285, had liberty of certain manor, part of his inheritance. He was summoned to Parliament as a Baron 8 June, 1294, and from that period to 18 Feb., 1331. His lordship was in the wars of France in time of Edward II. It is said that, however, he little minded secular business, but devoted the principal part of his time to conversations with the canons of Merton and Coverham. He married 1st Ephemia de Clavering and 2nd Margaret Thweng. He died April 18, 1331, buried at Coverham. Euphemia, is also called Anastasia FitzRobert, and was great-granddaughter of John FitzRobert, Surety for the Observance of the Magna Carta.
