BICKERTON, DAVID: portioner & late Bailie of Newburgh, & only son in life of John Bickerton; Bond to dau, Helen Bickerton, spouse of James Wilkie, tenant in Hattonhill; 5 June 1743 [SC20/36/7]
Wikipedia has this to say about Hatton Hill
Hatton Hill is a mountain landform in Angus, Scotland and is the most easterly peak of the Sidlaw Hills. Hatton Castle stands on the flanks of Hatton Hill above the village of Newtyle.[1] The general vicinity has elements of prehistory including presence of the Eassie Stone, a Pictish stone dating back to the Dark Ages.[2]
I assume that Hattonhill in Abdie, Fife is named for the Hatton Hill in Angus.
