He was the 7th son of Ralph de Neville, 1st Earl of Westmorland, and Joan Beaufort, Countess of Westmorland, daughter of John of Gaunt and Katherine Swynford).

In 1436 he married Lady Elizabeth de Beauchamp (died 18 June 1448), daughter of Richard de Beauchamp, 1st Earl of Worcester, and the former Lady Isabel le Despenser, who later succeeded as de jure 3rd Baroness Bergavenny. They had four children. Their two sons were Richard Nevill (before 1439 – before 1476) and Sir George Nevill (c. 1440–1492), who would become 4th and 2nd Baron Bergavenny upon his father's death. Through George Nevill, Edward Neville is an ancestor to Mary Ball, mother of George Washington. His daughters Alice and Catherine (born c. 1444) married Sir Thomas Grey and John Iwardby respectively.

Shortly after his first wife's death, in the summer or fall of 1448, he married Katherine Howard, daughter of Robert Howard and sister of John Howard, 1st Duke of Norfolk. His second wife bore him three additional daughters.

Their son William was ancestor of Thomas Jefferson. His daughter Margaret (b.bef. 1476-1506), married John Brooke, 7th Baron Cobham.
