Neville baronets
Extinct baronetcy in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
, The Neville baronetcy, of Sloley in the English county of Norfolk, was a title in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom. It was created on 2 July 1927 for the barrister and Conservative politician Reginald Neville. Born Reginald White, he was the son of James Sewell White, a judge of the High Court of Calcutta, who assumed his surname to Neville in 1885.[2] In 1950, he was succeeded by his elder son James Edmund Henderson Neville, who became the second baronet. Sir James was the author of The War Letters of a Light Infantryman (1931), and also wrote under the pen name of 'Gaid Sakit'.[3] The title became extinct on the death of the third baronet in 1994.[2]
