( c ) These were (1) Katharine, aged 31, in 1577, who inherited Burton Latimer, co. Northampton, &c. She, by her first husband Henry (Percy), 8th Earl of Northum- berland, was represented till 1865 by the Earls and Dukes of that name (whom see) who were thence [tho' erroneously being only coheirs and not tolt heirs] often held to be Loitns Latimer, (2) Dorothy, aged 29, who inherited Snape Castle, co.

See pedigree in Baker's " Northamptonshire," vol. ii, p. 444, and Banks' " Jiar. Any. Cone," vol. i, p. 278. ( d ) This is engraved in Drummond's " Noble British Kamilies." The inscription commences " Here lyeth buried Sir John Neveil, Knight, taste Lord Latlimor," &c. (°) So also his cousin, Sir Edward Nevill, claimed the Barony of Abergavenny in 1598, not only as being seized of that castle, but as being heir male of the last Lord, and consequently " the more eligible person." ( r ) He appears to have had two sons each named Ralph and five daughters of whom Dame Dorothy Hill alias Nevill" [who had m.
