释义 |
Hatherton was the son of Edward John Littleton, 1st Baron Hatherton, and Hyacinthe Mary Wellesley, eldest illegitimate daughter of Richard Wellesley, 1st Marquess Wellesley. He was educated at Eton College.[2] He was elected to the House of Commons for Walsall in 1847, a seat he held until 1852. He then represented Staffordshire Southern from 1853 until 1857.[1] In 1863 he succeeded his father as second Baron Hatherton and entered the House of Lords. He was not so active a politician as his father and Hansard records only two interventions in Parliament - one in the Commons, and one in the Lords.[3] He was also colonel of the (King's Own) 2nd Stafford Militia. He was appointed a Companion of the Order of the Bath in the 1881 Birthday Honours.[4] Lord Hatherton married Lady Margaret Percy, second daughter of George Percy, 5th Duke of Northumberland, in 1841. They had five sons:[2]
He died in April 1888 in London, aged 72, and was succeeded in the barony by his eldest son Edward.[1] Lady Hatherton died in 1897.
