Hatton-Hutton

If you have a desire to know history you have to really search for it. So much is written yet so much is lost, forgotten, or lies in old documents waiting for someone to bring it to light. I'm going to attempt to shed some light on history forgotten.

Who were the Hattons and Huttons? These two families are among many whose history is not fully understood.

Who was Carew Raleigh and what were the relationships between the families of Elizabeth 1st. Court?

Did you know most were related? Now that we have the ability to search for cousins using DNA, or genetics, I suspect we will uncover much more. Why did Carew Raleigh and John Hatton sail together ? What was the true relationship between Sir Christopher Hatton 1540-1591 and Sir Francis Drake? Who were the other Sir Christopher Hattons? Was Sir James Hutton of Scotland related?

Did Sir Christopher Hatton 1540-1591 have children? What was the relationship between the Hatton, Hutton and Rich family? DNA shows a link between these families.

Sir Christopher Hatton 1540-1591 was the first in the Court of Elizabeth 1 to invest in Sir Francis Drake. Drake then renamed his ship the "Pelican" to the "Golden Hinde" [ Hatton's Crest and on a gold chain he wore]. The e on Hind has been dropped over the years. A fun spot to visit is on the coast of Florida called the Treasure Ship.

Our DNA project study begins with Family Tree DNA and proceeds to the National Geographic Study. You will get a secure warning, just click okay and proceed. The "Family Tree DNA testing site" can answer any and all questions regarding DNA testing and you can join our projects or another surname project. The National Geographic Study will have begin a televised program this year. Many of our results are included in these programs as we trace our ancestral roots.

Another name we find connected to Hatton-Hutton is Simmons/Simons. This lineage may well be from the Knight Symon de Parco first noted in 1231.

Castles of Wales. I have been to Cheptow Castle and Hattons once operated a large pub in the city. They also brought "beverages":) from Gloucester. The Ballad of Robin Hood was also written by a Hatton.

Our early Welsh connection is with the Thomas and Morgan families.

We have relied on a genealogical paper trail until now. Today we have an extra tool "Genetics". For those who would like to view the old Hatton records, and others, at the Family History Society in Cheshire, England. You may also be interested in the many Hatton Crests ,or the Dutton relationship. In the next few years we may be able to verify these relationships through DNA testing.

One of the most famous Huttons was James Hutton born in Edinburgh, Scotland. It is in Edinburgh where we find both the Hutton and Hatton as prominent families.

The likely connection between some Hattons and Huttons can be found in Ratho, Scotland. Ratho is near Edinburgh. Hatton Castle is in Aberdeen and still stands.

However, an old Hatton Castle built in the 1400s is in Ratho. Here we have a connection as Sir James Hutton, family ancestry unknown, was also from this area. Interestingly the web site is maintained by Keith Hatton. There is also a small village named Hatton of Fintray. The writer, Frank Hatton, was also from this area. Fintry and Fintray are two different places.

Hatton Castle, Ayrshire, Scotland. This is not far from Stirling where we find DNA cousins.

Interesting Scottish Connection with Lauders and Maitlands.

For your information the father of George Lauder was Sir William Hatton killed at the Battle of Flodden. I think many of these Hattons and Huttons are connected in this area of Scotland. The family is very ancient and there isn't much known..likely this could very well be the family of the Hattons of Cheshire. Some recent data .

Holdenby Palace was built in 1583 by Sir Christopher Hatton [1541-1590]. It was the largest private home in England during the time of Elizabeth 1st. Later owned by King James 1st. and then his son King Charles 1st.
