Sheffield Neave
Sheffield Neave (1799–1868) was an English merchant and Governor of the Bank of England from 1857 to 1859.[1][2]
Life
He was the son of Sir Thomas Neave, 2nd Baronet, and his wife, Frances Digby, daughter of William Digby, and was educated at Christ Church, Oxford.[1][3] He had been Deputy Governor from 1855 to 1857. He replaced Thomas Matthias Weguelin as Governor and was succeeded by Bonamy Dobrée.[2]
Neave's tenure as Governor occurred during the Panic of 1857. In June 2020, the Bank of England issued a public apology for the involvement of Neave, amongst other employees, in the slave trade following the investigation by the Centre for the Study of the Legacies of British Slave-ownership at UCL.[4]
Family
Neave married Mary, daughter of David Richard Morier. Two sons, Sheffield Henry Morier Neave and Edward Strangways Neave, were partners in the family merchant house R. & T. Neave, the former being the father of Sheffield Airey Neave.[1][5]
