View Tree for Samuel HattenSamuel Hatten (b. October 25, 1749, d. August 20, 1839)

Samuel Hatten was born October 25, 1749 in Buckinghamshire, London, England, and died August 20, 1839 in Roundbottom, Pritchard, Wayne, WV. He married Rosanna Queen on Abt. 1772 in Loudon Co VA, daughter of John Queen and Eliza Smythe.

 Includes NotesNotes for Samuel Hatten:
The Hattons of my line are descended from British aristocracy, but to hear their descendants speak one wouldn't think this to be true. They moved to the hills of West Virginia long ago and they have quite well developed Southern twangs.

The earliest Hatton I found was Lord Chancellor Hatton of Queen Elizabeth I's court (see illustration). He was rumored to be one of her "favorites." One of her many favorites. The Hattons enjoyed many nobel titles until Oliver Cromwell screwed them and all of Britain up.

The earliest Hatton I'm directly dedescended from is Samuel Hatton. He was born October 25, 1749 in England. He was a paperhanger, but when his boss flogged him on his (Sam's) birthday, he ran away to Ireland. Finding no work there, he immigrated to America, Virginia to be exact. He worked on George Washington's farm and served in the revolution under Captain William Haffner from 1777 to 1781. Before entering the service he married Rosanna Queen daughter of John Queen. Sam had ten children that lived.

The last Hatton in my family tree was Mary Loucretia Hatton wife of Delbert Swanson and my grandmother.
