His near alliance to the House o Lancaster (being son-in-law of John of Gaunt), led him to forsake the King, and take a prominent part in the elevation of Henry of 'Bolingbroke' the exiled Duke of Lancaster, to the throne as King Henry IV. Ralph Neville, Earl of Westmorland, died testate at Raby Castle on 21 Oct. 1425, and was buried at Staindrop, Durham. His second wife, on whom the lordships of Middleham and Sheriff-Hutton, with other extensive lands, were between he and her sons on the one side, and the grandsons of her husband by his first wife on the other, which resulted in the elder branch espousing the cause of Lancaster, and Salisbury and his brothers, that of York.
