The son of Sir Edward Neville, he was considered to have succeeded to the Barony upon the death of Henry Neville, 6th Baron Bergavenny, his first cousin, although by modern doctrine he did not hold that title, as it should have descended to the heir general, the 6th Baron's daughter Mary, Lady Fane.

He married Katherine Brome, with whom he had the following children:

  • Edward Neville, 8th Baron Bergavenny (c.1550 – 1622)
  • Francis Neville
  • George Neville
  • Henry Neville
  • Margaret Neville
  • Grisel Neville married Sir Henry Poole
  • Mary Neville

He later married Grisold Hughes.
