London flat

It seem that in order to have a place to reside in London when at the court (but also to probably ensure housekeeping) Elizabeth lended Sommersett House (look at it the current building is quite beautful, though I couldn't manage to find what it look like in 1574 at best here 17th century) technically the place was still royal property (unlike Hundson house who was all Henry) . The estate was kept in the care of his family even after his death as his wife was made keeper shortly after.

Visitation

So I sorta let us move from all the death, treason and blood to go into the lighter side of things or perhaps the closest thing I've found to a notable event in the times following the rebellion. Essentially in september of 1571 that Elizabeth visited Hunsdon and a picture was said made of the event (source). What particular is that some version of the picture will tell you that the picture is suppose to be a scene from 1586 (devon's cary for exemple), you can sorta see a better image (here at page 18 and it also goes further into how the picture was made, page 22 in partciular) Here a colour version, but the think is that wiki source identify it as something taking plaace much later and that perhpas is not Henry Carey we see here but George Carey. I've seen some plae where the lady in white at the end is identify as lady hunsdon (possibly Anne Morgan).

Oh captain my captain

I said previously that Henry Carey seem to have become captain of the gentleman pensioner in 1564, should you look into the dictionary of national biography it will tell you so. However a few thing came to make me think that perhaps he was appointed several years earlier. Should you look at wikipedia it tell you that appointement came straight ahead in 1558.

Should you wonder what exactly that entail for Henry Carey, it essentially made him bodyguard to the queen among a group of other gentleman with that duty. The website of the yeoman of the guard does seem to confirm this (I half expect that its the source of the one of wikipedia), but I'M still not sure of the reability. 

Two  book that does seem to mention him being captain in 1558 is Beatson's Political index modernised. The book of dignities; containing rolls of the official personages of the British empire, together with the sovereigns of Europe, the peerage of England and of Great Britain; and numerous other lists at page210 and Some Accounts of the Ancient Corps of Gentlemen-at-Arms at page 260

As for why people seem to think have took place in 6 years or so after this date I'm not sure. I suspect it might come from the source that say that Hunsdon was captain of the pensionner when the Queen visited Cambridge (he got his MA there the same year remember), look at the page 60 of the previous book for the source and that he was never really refer to as captain previously in most source , but even there its just me speculating.

Elizabeth seem to have appreciate his service has bodyguard, if you consider she put him in charge of her personal safety during the invicible armada episode.

Look at the calendar

(sorry for bring this somewhat late, though to be fair it is still two days even we are about one hour before midnight :P )

So let us look at the mention of Henry Carey in the State Papers, Foreign; Calendar and comment a bit upon it. (it is only the very first volume of it, we sorta have a lot on our plate for theses volume)

Volume 1: entry 1330

I believe I've mention it before, but Henry Carey was in the attendance at Henri II funeral as "Mourner" apparently with a group of other member of the noblity and you can also see how much their black cloth and helmet and everything further down.  You can see more of it in the merchant-taylor at around 209-210 )  If there one thing I'm not too sure if those funeral apparently took place in London, which I would find odd considering its a french king.

I will also mention this, it much more easier to find the baron in here in record now, since there is no alternate spelling for Hunsdon and damn it feel good to be able to find info so simply.¸

Volume 2 : 472

The duke of Northfolk here would Thomas Howard, who had some family relation to his future son-law. I guess it only further confirm that Henry had growing experience into the matter of Scotland which further justify is future appointment. 

Volume 2 Footnote (twice even)

Again Greenwhich tournament. (Geez that must have been something seeing how people keep refering it)

Volume 3:  443

Apparently, Henry is graceful for the Garter though pleased the queen is well (sweet of him I guess)

Volume 3: 224.7

Not quite sure I understand the entry properly, though it seem that Henry having trouble getting a harness to the queen.

Volume 3. 263.6

If I get this properly Lord Hunsdon, sending silk to the queen (not sure again, it could be that Lord Hunsdon is sastified by the information given by the treasurer)

Volume 3. Footnote

Hey look apparently one letter actually written by our subject (Is it this the first time? I can't recall) and I think the first entry a letter from the queen to our dear Lord Hunsdon giving him instruction on what to do with the Swedish King.

Volume 3. 539

Don't really know what the instruction are here.

Volume 3. 627.3

You know me I always welcome reference to the wife of Henry Carey. the brought-a-bed would mean she's in the late state of pregnancy. Hard to say which child she giving birth here. Though a likely guest could be Robert Carey as his estimate birthdate given at around 1560

Volume 5.499

Off Dear hunting, no word if he killed anything himself though.

Volume 6. 1027

Volume 6. 1122

Sorta putting this in the same cause they are for the same event Katherine Carey, marriage to Charles Howard.

Governor

So like I mention in the Cecil paper you will find this reference dating from november 1561. At entry 840.

Has appointed Lord Hunsdon, Governor of Berwick. He is to proceed to take charge and government of Newcastle and the county of Northumberland under the Earl. Directs the Earl of Sussex to write to Sir John Foster, Warden of the Middle Marches towards Scotland, giving him instructions to join Lord Hunsdon. Hartlepool is to be safely kept. Has given order for a supply of munitions of war to be sent to him.

While eye brow raising is that most source will tell you that Henry Carey did indeed assume governorship of Berwick-upon-Tweed but he did so in 1568(I'm almost incline to think its a mistake, but really what are the odd that it is). What make it more difficult is that they don't quite seem to a proper list of the governor of Berwick-Upon-Tweed (or at least the one on wikipedia is pretty full of holes). So far the most convicing one seem to be from history of parliament and has you can see it doesn't mention him being governor in 1561. It goes from William 13th Lord Grey of Wilton to the 2nd Earl of Bedford (Francis, Russel, amusingly he is the son of John Russel, the man who apparently took Henry under his wings at some point).

Wiki mention that Lord Grey had retired of active command by 1561 (apparently from failling health , page 159 ) so I'm incline to think that he (like is son much later) were essentially place holder at Berwick until more official appointment came around.
