Office:
For Henry VIII's coronation

He laid claim to this office, as his hereditary right, in 1514. He claimed the Lord High Constableship as heir of Humphrey de Bohun, Earl of Hereford, who, it was stated, "held the manors of Harlefield, Newnam, and Whytenhurst [Haresfield, Newnham, and Wheatenhurst], in the county of Gloucester of the King by the service of being Constable of England." The judges decided that the office should "have continuance in the Duke notwithstanding that one of the three manors has come to the hands of our Lord the King; for otherwise it will ensue that the Duke will have the two other manors without doing any service for them, and so the Duke is compellable at the pleasure of the King to do and exercise the office." For an account of the confusion into which the judges were led by their misconception of the nature of the tenure of this office, which was not in fact attached to the manors but was an office held in fee; and of the confusion worse confounded in which Law Lords and Counsel in modern peerage cases have been involved owing to their blind acceptance of the decision in this case, see J. H. Round's Peerage and Pedigree (vol. i, pp. 147–166), where an amusing exposure of legal methods is given in the article termed "The Muddle of the Law." See also Appendix D in The Complete Peerage, volume II (1912).

Notes:

When the Earldom of Northumberland was granted to "Sir John Neville of Montagu, Knight," in May 1464, Percy was committed to the Fleet prison, and removed, after September 1465, to the Tower, whence he was discharged 27 October 1469, having done fealty to Edward IV.

In 1467–8 he was in the charge of the Earl of Pembroke, and living in his house.

Following his discharge from the Tower, he appears to have remained in touch with the King until the Earldom was restored to him at York, 25 March 1470.

The following day, as Sir Henry Percy, Kt., he had a grant of the custody of his father's forfeited estates in Yorkshire, Cumberland, Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, Cambridgeshire, Suffolk, and London. Neville had surrendered his grant so far as it concerned Northumberland, by the King's command, 22 February.

The Earl recovered possession as from 2 March 1469/70 (possibly the date of his coming of age), by the Act reversing his father's attainder, 1472.

He attended a Council at Canterbury in June 1470.

On 24 June 1470, as Henry Percy, son of the late Earl, he was constituted Warden of the East and Middle Marches towards Scotland, three months before Edward IV's flight. He was so constituted by patent dated 17 July; a patent of the following day calls him Earl of Northumberland.

He retained the Wardenship under successive Kings till his death.

He held numerous other official appointments in the North—e.g. Commissioner to treat with the Scots, 1471–73, 1483, 1484, 1488; of array in the Northern counties, 1472; Justice of the Forests North of Trent and constable of Bamborough Castle, 5 June 1471; constable of Dunstanborough and Knaresborough Castles; constable and porter of the castle of Newcastle-upon-Tyne, 5 March 1473/74. By Henry VII he was made bailiff of Tyndale, Northumberland, in 1486.

On his return in 1471, Edward IV, landing in the North, produced a letter, as of summons, from the restored Earl, which eased his progress towards recapture of the throne.

In 1475 he took part in Edward IV's expedition to France.

He was in command at the capture of Berwick, 1482, and made Governor thereof, 1483. His prowess was commended by the Commons in Parliament.

He bore the sword Curtana at the Coronation of Richard III, 7 July 1483.

He deserted Richard III on Bosworth Field.

Office:
"The Earl was made sheriff of Northumberland for life, 14 Aug. 1474, and (by Henry VII) during pleasure, 12 Feb. 1487/8."

Hereditary Title:
"The death of his mother, in Feb. 1483/4, made him, according to modern doctrine, Lord Poynings [1337]."

Died:
"Being employed to levy in the North an unpopular tax and to inquire into disturbances in the city of York, he was murdered by the rabble at his manor house, Cock Lodge, near Topcliffe, Yorks, 28 Apr. 1489, aged about 40 ..."

Henry married Lady Maud Herbert circa 1476. Maud (daughter of William (Herbert), 1st Earl of Pembroke and Anne Devereux) died before 27 July 1485; was buried in Beverley Minster, Beverley, Yorkshire, England. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
