Notes
Second baron Hungerford following his grandfather's death in 1449. His parliamentary summonses seem all to have been made
to him as lord Moleyns.
He went to Aquitaine in 1453, being appointed one of the captains to lead fresh troops there for John Talbot, earl of Shrewsbury,
the lieutenant in the duchy, and was captured by the French in the same year. He remained in French captivity for many years,
and after his release was a stalwart of the Lancastrian cause, fighting at many of the battles in the latter stages of the
Wars of the Roses.
After fleeing to Scotland in the aftermath of the battle of Towton on 29 March 1461, he was eventually attainted at Edward
IV's first parliament in November 1461, and was executed following his capture at the battle of Hexham on 15 May 1464.
