Early life
Hatton was the eldest son of John Hatton of Longstanton, Cambridgeshire and his wife, Jane Shute, daughter of Robert Shute. His father's first cousin was Sir Christopher Hatton (1540-1591), Queen Elizabeth I's favourite. Sir Christopher Hatton was also his godfather and namesake and following the death of the elder Sir Christopher's nephew and heir (Sir William Newport Hatton), he succeeded to the estates in 1597. He was made a royal ward in 1599. He was educated at Cambridge by 1599.Шаблон:Sfn His younger brother was Sir Thomas Hatton, 1st Baronet, ancestors of the Hatton Baronets of Longstanton.
Career
In 1601, Hatton was elected Member of Parliament for Buckingham.
Hatton married Alice Fanshawe, daughter of Thomas Fanshawe of Ware Park, Hertfordshire on 13 March 1602.
Hatton received the favour of James I. He was knighted with the Order of the Bath in 1603. In 1606 he was elected MP for Bedford replacing Humphrey Winch who became a judge. In 1614 Hatton was elected MP for Huntingdon.
In 1616 Hatton's brother-in-law Henry Fanshawe died. The post of remembrancer of the exchequer, which effectively belonged to the Fanshawe family, became vacant.

This quote has been interpreted in suggesting that Hatton was responsible for some of the texts in the set, but there is no decisive evidence to support this.Шаблон:Sfn It is also unlikely that Gibbons was a resident of Hatton's household, though it is possible that their friendship led to Hatton setting a room aside for him to compose.Шаблон:Sfn Gibbons' children, Christopher and Alice were likely the namesakes of Hatton and his wife respectively.Шаблон:Sfn
