«u»«b»Sir Walter Hungerford of Farleigh
http://www.tudorplace.com.ar/Bios/WalterHungerford.htm
«/u»«/b» is given as "half-brother" of «b»Sir Edward Hungerford http://www.tudorplace.com.ar/Bios/WalterHungerford(1BHeystesbury).htm«/b»
in the source. Whether is was this son of «u»«b»Walter, Lord Hungerford «/u»«/b», or another, needs to be determined. With «u»«b»Walter's http://www.tudorplace.com.ar/Bios/WalterHungerford.htm «/u»«/b»
attainder, Farleigh again passed into the hands of the Crown - but it was sold back to «u»«b»Walter's «/u»«/b»
http://www.tudorplace.com.ar/Bios/WalterHungerford(1BHeystesbury).htm
son «b»Edward«/b», four years later. Gentleman pensioner to «u»«b»Queen Elizabeth «/u»«/b»,
http://www.tudorplace.com.ar/aboutElizabeth.htm
was twice married, but died without issue in 1607. «u»«b»Walter Hungerford«/u»«/b»
http://www.tudorplace.com.ar/Bios/WalterHungerford.htm
left his property to him, with remainder to his heirs male by a mistress, «b»Margery Bright«/b». The half-brother succeeded to the Hungerford estates, and both «b»Lady Hungerford«/b» and «b»Margery Bright«/b» sued for dower. «b»Margery«/b» also claimed maintenance for her youngest son and asserted that «b»Edward Hungerford«/b» had received lands worth 3,000 pounds a year from his half-brother in his lifetime and had now taken over the remainder whose value she put variously at 20,000 or 80,000 pounds. Carrying on family tradition, «b»Edward«/b» accused his second wife of trying to poison him. The case was dismissed by the courts, but «b»Edward«/b» went to prison, rather than pay her costs. He left to his widow (d. 1653) a life interest in the estates, with remainder to his great-nephew, «b»Sir Edward«/b» (1596-1648), son of «b»Sir Anthony Hungerford of Black Bourton«/b», Oxfordshire.
