Thousands of people are related to the Hungerfords down the line. I’m a mixed race woman from the US and traced one of my mothers lines back to the Down Ampney cadet branch. Genealogy makes the world a small place.
@@Tsumami__ genetics also trace everyone to one common woman. My farley family ancestor's (who was the first farley in America) mom was a hungerford. I'm still a Farley.
Thanks to this video and Simon’s mention of the beheading of Thomas Cromwell, I finally got straight on the histories of Thomas and Oliver! Can’t believe I’ve been confused by this for decades. Thanks to the internet, we yankees now have access to more British history! Thanks again, Simon and Will. Always a pleasurable journey with you!
As a direct Hungerford descendant (of six Hungerford grandfathers), this is the best film I've ever seen. The last one totally ignored the interiors of the chapel and the priest's house. I was aware of the Hungerford legacy through an old book, but Fairleigh is now on my next UK itinerary... 🌷
Hello so nice to hear from a descendant! We are very grateful you think we did a good job presenting the castle and the history. I have to say it was a tough one to do with so much important history and association with major figures of the times! In addition when all the family heirs have the same name that gets equally hard and confusing! We seem to have had a good reception to the video. Thank you for reaching out! All the best.
@@MemorySeekers It's very kind of you to write to me. I'm not sure how many of us are out here: there's probably a family association of some sort. Once my boots are on the ground at the castle, all of this will seem much more tangible and real...
It's nice to see that someone from the Hungerford family has found there way to these comment sections. Im a descendant of the Farleigh(changed to Farley) family that was wed with a lady Jane Hungerford. I do not have my family lineage information in front of me. The Farleigh Family is from the same place in England as the Hungerford's were. I know that is where the actual Farleigh part of the Castle's Name comes from not from another explanation that I've seen on a different video. After trying to find What I could online about the family lineage is all over the place but it may seem that the Hungerford and Farley name may have descended from the same Person, at one point in history. Please correct me if I'm wrong. I am a descendant of the Farley's that Helped settle Belle river area in What is now Almont, Michigan. I very much enjoyed the video! thank you!
Very detailed information in short...👍👍👍the picturesque & castle is admirable & more historical, may be horrifying but history is long with shortened life of gain & loss...thank u, for a beautiful video...
Many thanks for these wonderfully presented trips you both make, with great stories of areas if the UK. MacCrae clan, here, with documentation of serving as guards at Eileen Donan Castle. Only my eldest daughter & bridegroom have visited with great storytelling, too. Thanks for taking us to the UK... places I will never be able to visit in person but that I thoroughly enjoy through your vide camera lens!
Hello thank you for the lovely comment. We passed Eileen Donan Castle not so long ago on our trip to Scotland. We didn't have time to go inside but will go back one day as we have such a wonderful warm welcome in Scotland. So glad you enjoyed the video. All the best.
Very interesting and quite fascinating in parts. The place is very vast and beautiful. It’s too bad it can’t be brought back to it’s former glory. I love how you always include every detail of history in your tours. The embalming fluid part was extremely strange … but to each his own … yuk. Thank you for another great tour.
The chapel, the castle, the lady tower, priest house, surroundings land defines their loyal lifestyles & war backgrounds... very good content... 👍👍👍 it's like a documentary i m intrested
Well done! There is something about this castle that draws me more than others I have seen. I don't know why precisely. Maybe there is more of the family's personality lingering about more than at other historic sites ! What do you think?
Glad you liked the tour, there is certainly a lot of history and close links to many other famous historic people from the past. Even though a lot of the castle is gone you can still sense the past for sure.
Wow I can’t believe what all went on there. Tasting the tasting The embalming fluid was a bit much. I had no idea there were so many castles in the UK. I learned a lot her. Thank you much!
Maravilhoso esse vídeo. O interior da Inglaterra é cheio de histórias fantásticas. Amei ver os videos de JANE E ANA BOLENA. Parabens pelos videos. 👍👍💕💕
Muito obrigado pelo comentário e assistindo muitos de nossos vídeos. Estou muito satisfeito por você ter gostado e achar a informação interessante. Tudo de bom e saudações de Londres.
Que lugares tan interesantes tenéis en vuestro país. Admirable que se haya conservado en tan buen estado la iglesia y la cripta, y sobretodo la historia de quienes vivieron allí. Tus vídeos son lo mejor! Gracias siempre por subtitular en español. Saludos de la también histórica España, ojalá vinierais por aquí para hacernos vídeos de este estilo😉 Saludos!! 🌼
Hola y saludos desde Londres. Es bueno saber que está disfrutando de los recorridos por el campo y la historia asociada con él. También que agradeces las traducciones. ¡Estoy seguro de que en algún momento estaremos en España para ver algunas de tus maravillas! Todo lo mejor.
Interesting history! How did people live? Eat, dress, etc. Were there priest’s holes, tunnels, artwork, stain glass…. ? Anything of specific interest…… did they have a winery, special tapestries or anything specially unique to this place or did they just live their lives like we do now? Pretty much just living, working, raising families. Even the tombs seemed decorated but sparse in the artwork used. Thanks! I loved the tour!
When did the Family Change it's name to Farley? Or did they? Supposedly I am a direct descendant with the last name of Farley and have traced back to Thomas. But on many family trees it is not clear to be 100 percent certain.
I'm a descendent of the Hungerfords. Sir Thomas Hungerford (the one first mentioned) is my 20th great-grandfather. Do you think I can get my entrance fee waived, lol?
Please note we say the castle is 30 miles south of Bath, we meant to say 30 minutes drive.
This is my wife's family and she has researched them extensively. We visited in 2014. I have shared this with her so she can enjoy it too.
How wonderful hope she enjoyed it. Quite a history around the property and the family. Very interesting for us to research.

Hey cousins. Great grandmother was a Farley and her fathers lineage traced back to Thomas hungerford 😊

What an amazing history lesson for one family!
Another interesting place, with a history worthy of a novel by Agatha Christie!
And that was a streamlined version. It felt like I was rattling on to much so watered it down a bit. They had quite a past that family!

Another precise yet interesting documentary of a historical site and family in England . Much appreciated.
Thanks Amy
Interesting tour of Hungerford Castle, especially with having Hungerfords in my family line(s). It is good to have an idea of one's ancestral home.
We had another person comment on the video that is related as well to the Hungerford's as well.
@@MemorySeekers, who knows the other person that commented and I May be distantly related.😂🤣
I’m a quarter Hungerford. I hope to visit some day. :)
What a amazing place I could of watched more of these videos for literally hours.. look forward to more of these videos ❤️
Very detailed information in short...👍👍👍the picturesque & castle is admirable & more historical, may be horrifying but history is long with shortened life of gain & loss...thank u, for a beautiful video...
Excellent walk today. I enjoyed it. And the beautiful historical castle 🏰. And grounds. Can't wait to see more soon 😃 greetings from Canada 😀

You are so welcome!

Hello, thank you for the lovely comment, glad you enjoyed the tour. Yes the fluid was pretty disgusting part. A very interesting place!
As a Hungerford relation,I thank you very much for this video! Much appreciated!

We really liked the chapel, very interesting place to visit. The crypt was quite creepy!
@@MemorySeekers i agree.. your traveling places are quite beautiful and interesting
Very enjoyable with the beautiful choice of music and all the details you give us verbally and visually!😊
Thank you very much!

Disgusting 🤮 isn’t it
Thank! Beautiful!
😊
Wonderful, place . Thanks
Glad you enjoyed it
que impresionante, muy interesante me encanto el lugar
Encantado de escuchar, me alegro de que te haya gustado.
Fascinating, but that bit about tasting from the coffin…ewww. Creepy and nasty.
haha yes that was a bit grim.
Awesome 👌
Thanks 🤗
👍❤❤
Sempre interessanti i tuoi video complimenti 😜
😊
thank you
For "tasting?" Or was that "testing?" Whoaaaaa
Tasting! 😱
@@MemorySeekers What in hell for????
Apparently to taste the soul of the departed and enrich there lives! I am surprised it didn't kill them on the stop. Disgusting to think about it!
@@MemorySeekers ok thats about as sick as it gets. wow
Videoların gerçekten çok başarılı.Başarılarının devamını dilerim.Türkiyeden selamlar🖐️
Nazik sözlerin için teşekkür ederim. Londra'dan selamlar
That last bit regarding tasting the fluid was tactless and offensive.
The truth hurts!
Печальная история. Жалко что потомков не осталось. 👍
When did the Family Change it's name to Farley? Or did they? Supposedly I am a direct descendant with the last name of Farley and have traced back to Thomas. But on many family trees it is not clear to be 100 percent certain.
Gruesome drilling to get to the embalming fluid
Yes not pleasant at all!
❤❤❤❤👍
I'm a descendent of the Hungerfords. Sir Thomas Hungerford (the one first mentioned) is my 20th great-grandfather. Do you think I can get my entrance fee waived, lol?
Haha if you could prove it on the day you never know!
Why would they drink the fluid? Eww
I know, horrible!
my friend Ethan parents own it

DO you think you might be related?
I don't know, my dad's last name is hungerford so maybe
