sabel was the daughter of Richard Neville, the Earl of Warwick, and was born at Warwick Castle. Warwick arranged the marriage of Isabel to the brother of King Edward IV, George Duke of Clarence. This was against the King's wishes and the plan was to depose Edward and place Clarence on the throne of England. Dispensation from the Pope was required because both Isabel and Clarence were related, both being descended from Edward III. The marriage took place in France in July 1469. Isabel had four children, the first child died shortly after it was born. Isabel died shortly after giving birth to her second son at the age of twenty-five at Warwick Castle.
