John Carey, 3rd Baron Hunsdon (born c. 1556, died 1617) was an English peer, politician and Governor of Berwick-upon-Tweed.
It is alleged that his father was the illegitimate son of Henry VIII of England born of Mary Boleyn when she was a royal mistress.
[3] Lord Home invited Carey to come from Berwick to meet James VI at Dunglass Castle in January 1595, but he refused to make the trip.
[4] Carey wrote in April that James VI and Anne of Denmark planned to come on a progress towards Berwick, including a visit to "Holliday" (Halidon) Hill which overlooked the town and its fortifications.
[5] Carey relayed news of Humphrey Dethick, a former employee of Baptist Hicks who came to Dunfermline Palace and killed a man.
