==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.〔 cite:Le Neve, ''Pedigrees of Knights'', p. 33.〕 His father was a Puritan, but his mother was a devout Roman Catholic, the religion in which Hungerford was raised.
Hungerford matriculated from St. John's College, Oxford, aged 16, on 12 April 1583 without taking a degree.〔 cites: ''Oxford Univ. Reg''., Oxford Hist. Soc.,n. ii. 126.〕 Howveer he was created M.A. on 9 July 1594.〔 cites: ''Oxford Univ. Reg''., II. i. 235.〕
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,〔 cites: Metcalfe, p. 159.〕 and was deputy lieutenant of Wiltshire until 1624, when he resigned the office in favour of his son, Edward. He was returned as a Member of Parliament for the constituency of Marlborough, Wiltshire, for Queen Elizabeth I's 8th parliament in 1593, and sat for Great Bedwyn, Wiltshire, in the next three consecutive parliaments, in 1597, 1601, and the 1st parliament of King James I in 1604. He settled at Black Bourton, Oxfordshire where he died at the end of June 1627, and was buried in Black Bourton Church.
