Reginald Nevill, 2nd Marquess of Abergavenny

Reginald Nevill, 2nd Marquess of Abergavenny

Reginald William Bransby Nevill J.P., 2nd Marquess of Abergavenny (4th March 1853 - 13th October 1927) was a British Peer, the son of Sir William Nevill, 1st Marquess of Abergavenny.He never married and as he died with no male heir, the marquessate passed to his brother, Lt.-Col. Henry Gilbert Ralph Nevill, on his death.

In 1898 by order of the Master in lunacy custody of Reginald William Bransby (then Earl of Lewes) passed to his elder brother Lord Henry Nevill. His obituary in the Times in 1927 gives his address as Cheadle Royal in Cheshire, this is in fact a lunatic asylum. As he had attended Eton from 1866 to 1868, from 1873 to 1876 he was a lieutenant in the West Kent Yeomanry and became a magistrate for Kent in 1880, his mental problems would appear to have manifested themselves later in life.
