Alice Neville, Baroness FitzHugh (c. 1430 – after 22 November 1503) or Lady Alice FitzHugh, was the wife of Henry FitzHugh, 5th Baron FitzHugh.[2] She is best known for being the great-grandmother of queen consort Catherine Parr and her siblings, Anne and William, as well as one of the sisters of Warwick the 'Kingmaker'. Her family was one of the oldest and most powerful families of the North. They had a long-standing tradition of military service and a reputation for seeking power at the cost of the loyalty to the crown as was demonstrated by her brother, the Earl of Warwick.[3]
