[1] Anthony Hungerford was elected in 1640 to both the Short and Long parliaments as a member of Malmesbury.
[2] He was heavily fined for his delinquency by the Long Parliament and was committed to the Tower of London in 1644.
According to a statement which he drew up in 1646, to excuse himself from paying the fine imposed on him, he never took up arms for the king: went after the battle of Edgehill to his house in Black Bourton, Oxfordshire; was carried thence by a troop of the king's horse to the 'assembly' at Oxford, where he gave no vote against the parliament, and soon after returning home, purposely rode to the parliamentary camp at Burford, where he was taken prisoner.
[4] Anthony Hungerford married Rachel (died January 1679-80), daughter of Rice Jones of Astall, Oxfordshire, by whom he had twelve children.
Anthony Hungerford succeeded to Farleigh Castle in 1653 as heir of his half-brother Edward.
