Sir Anthony Hungerford of Black Bourton (1567–1627), was a religious controversialist. He was knighted in 1608, and was deputy lieutenant of Wiltshire until 1624, when he resigned the office in favour of his eldest son Sir Edward.

Biography

Hungerford was born in 1567 Great Bedwyn in Wiltshire, the son of Anthony Hungerford (died 1589) of Down Ampney, Gloucestershire, a descendant of Sir Edmund Hungerford second son of Walter, Lord Hungerford of Farleigh and Heytesbury. His mother was Bridget, daughter of John Shelley, and granddaughter of Sir William Shelley, justice of the common pleas. His father was a Puritan, but his mother was a devout Roman Catholic, the religion in which Hungerford was raised.

Hungerford seems to be the Anthony Hungerford of Wiltshire, who matriculated from St. John's College, Oxford, aged 16, on 12 April 1583. Because of his father's financial problems, Hungerford left the university within a year; but he is probably the Anthony Hungerford 'Armiger' who was created M.A. on 9 July 1594.

After being uncertain regarding his religious beliefs and Catholic upbringing, Hungerford embraced the Reformed religion in 1588, at the time of the Spanish Armada. He was knighted on 15 February 1608, and was deputy lieutenant of Wiltshire until 1624, when he resigned the office in favour of his son, Edward. He settled at Black Bourton, Oxfordshire where he died at the end of June 1627, and was buried in Black Bourton Church.

Bibliography

After Hungerford's death, his son, Edward, found among his papers and published "The advice of a son professing the religion established in the present church of England to his dear mother, a Roman catholic", and "the memorial of a father to his dear children, containing an acknowledgement of God'? great mercy in bringing him to the profession of the true religion at this present established in the church of England", Oxford, 1639, 4to. The latter was finished at Black Bourton in April 1627.

Family

Hungerford married Lucy, daughter of Sir Walter Hungerford (Knight of Farley). Together, they had at least three children:

  • Sir Edward (1596–1648) a roundhead
  • Thomas, who emigrated to New England in 1628. He lived in Hartford, where he had children Thomas and Sarah with his first wife Rebecca Wallis. After her death, he married Hannah Willey in 1658, and together they had daughter Hannah.
  • Anne emigrated with Thomas. She married John Lee who was from London in 1636. They settled in Ipswich, Massachusetts, and had children.

After Lucy's death, Hungerford married Sarah, daughter of John Crouch of London. Together, they had four children: Anthony, a cavalier; John; and two daughters.
