Notes

It is important not to confuse this MP with Robert Neville (d.1374), the son of Ralph, Lord Neville (d.1367) and brother of John, Lord Neville (d.1388) and of Alexander Neville, abp. of York (d.1392). This Robert took part in the expedition which his brother, John, then steward of the royal household, led to Brittany in 1372, having previously been involved in negotiations with the duke of Brittany (CP, ix. 501; DKR, xlv. 244; EHR, lxxix. 726; Foedera ed. Rymer (Hague edn.) iii (2), 187).
