Hungerford Dunch

Hungerford Dunch (20 January 1639 – 9 November 1680) was an English politician who sat in the House of Commons in 1660 and from 1679 to 1680.

In 1678, he inherited the title of de jure Baron Burnell of East Wittenham from his father, although he never used it as it had been created during the Commonwealth.

He was an inactive member though he sat on a committee to bring in a bill for the abolition of Court of Wards,[2] through which his family had suffered.
