Alexander Neville (c. 1340–1392) was alate medieval prelate who served asArchbishop of York from 1374 to 1388.

Life

[edit]

Born around 1340, Alexander Neville was a younger son ofRalph Neville, 2nd Baron Neville de Raby and Alice de Audley. He was a member of theNeville family, one of the most powerful families in the north ofEngland.[1]

Neville's first known ecclesiastical appointment was as acanon ofYork Minster, holding theprebendary of Bole from 1361 to 1373.[2] He became a claimant to theArchdeaconry of Cornwall from 1361 until it was set aside in 1371,[3] becoming insteadArchdeacon of Durham from circa 1371 to 1373.[4] He was appointedArchbishop of York on 3 or 14 April 1374,[5] having been elected by thechapter ofYork in November 1373 and receivedroyal assent on 1 January 1374.[6] He wasconsecrated to theepiscopate atWestminster on 4 June 1374 and enthroned atYork Minster on 18 December 1374.[7]

On theLords Appellant rising againstKing Richard II in 1386, however, Neville was accused of treason and it was determined to imprison him for life inRochester Castle.[1]

Neville fled, andPope Urban VI, pitying his case,translated him to the Scottishsee of St. Andrews on 30 April 1388. However, he never took possession of the see because theScots acknowledged theAvignon papacy with their own candidate,Walter Trail.[8]

For the remainder of Neville's life he served as a parish priest inLeuven, where he died in May 1392 and was buried there in the Church of theCarmelites.[7][9]
