Information About

George Nevill, Duke Of Bedford




George Nevill ( 14571483 ), son of John, Earl Of Northumberland , was made Duke Of Bedford in 1470 , as the intended husband of Elizabeth Of York . However, his father and his uncle (the Earl Of Warwick ) rebelled against Edward IV the next year and were slain. He was deprived of the title in 1478 , ostensibly for lack of money to maintain the style of a duke.
