1156-66, Judge of Court of Exchequer 1165, Justice of the forest in all England 1165
-77, excommunicated by St Thomas a Becket 1166 for supporting Henry II in his 
insistence that clergy were subject to the ordinary law. [Burke's Peerage]

------------------------

ALAN DE NEVILLE, brother of Gilbert and probably son of Geoffrey de Neville of 
Walcot, Lincs, was a judge of the Court of Exchequer, 1165; Justice of the Forest 
throughout England, 1165-77. He supported the King in his policy of submitting the 
clergy to the law of the land, and was excommunicated by Becket in 1166. With his 
brother Gilbert he founded the abbey of Tupholme, Lincs, 1156-66, and was a 
benefactor of Kirkstead and Bordesley abbeys. He died 1177-78. [Complete Peerage 
IX:478, transcribed by Dave Utzinger]

Some show Alan as the son of Gilbert de Neville born abt 1035 , brother of Gilbert de 
Neville born abt 1085 , (father of Geoffrey de Neville) and others show him as the son 
of Ernise de Neville or AErnisius de Neville and nephew to reported brother Gilbert de 
Neville born abt 1085. Others show him as a son of Ralph de Neville. Others show an 
Alan died 1190 as the son of Ernise. Some say he died in 1191, was a judge and show 
him as brother to Gilbert born 1035 (hardly think so with 156 years between dates) 
Seeminly Alan de Neville died 1190 is the son of Alan that say died about 1178 
(perhaps)

There is evidently a witness list of one of Gilbert de Neville born 1035 charters that 
name his two younger sons William and Walter and include Alan de Neville son of 
Ernise.

One of Alans charters in Kirkstead abbey was reportedly witnessed by brother Gilbert 
and Gilberts son Geoffrey which would make him the son of Gilbert. Somehow I doubt 
the charter said brother Gilbert and son Geoffrey.

[Note that I have followed Burke's Peerage's ancestry, which has no "Ernise" de 
Neville, but has Alan d1190, son of Alan d1178 (however Alan d 1190 is not an 
ancestor of mine.]
