Isabella Neville
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Isabella Neville (5 September 1451-1476) was the elder daughter of Richard Neville, 16th Earl of Warwick, the Kingmaker of the Wars of the Roses, and Anne Neville, 16th Countess of Warwick.
She was born at Warwick Castle. In 1469 her ambitious father engaged her to England's heir apparent,George, Duke of Clarence brother to Edward IV of England. The king was against the marriage, which accordingly took place at a secret ceremony at Calais, conducted by Isabella's relation George Neville, Archbishop of York. Their first child was either stillborn or died shortly after its birth at sea. In 1473 she gave birth to a daughter called Margaret and in 1475 to a son called Edward. She died the next year (either from consumption or childbed fever).
