Joshua Hatton (8 June 1850 in Chesterfield, Derbyshire – 1920)[1] was an English writer, poet and editor, the brother of Joseph Hatton, Editor of The People).[2] His exact date of death in late 1920 is uncertain, but it was reported at the beginning of 1921. He was aged 70.[2]

Reputation

Hatton commonly used the pseudonym Guy Roslyn, although he is more often regarded by that name as a bogus biographer reduced to poverty and begging from the subjects of his biographies in his later life.[3]
