He was born in London and educated at Westminster and Trinity College, Cambridge.[1] On taking his degree he was elected a fellow of his college, and soon afterwards wrote the comedy, Loiola (London, 1648), which was twice performed before King James I. He was ordained in 1618, and through the influence of John Williams became rector in 1621 of Stoke Hammond, Buckinghamshire, and Kirkby Underwood, Lincolnshire.

In 1623 he was chaplain to James, and in 1624 Williams gave him the livings of St Andrew's, Holborn, and Cheam, Surrey. He was Archdeacon of Bedford from 1631 to 1661.

When the so-called Root and Branch Bill was before Parliament in 1641, Hacket was selected to plead in the House of Commons for the continuance of cathedral establishments. In 1645 his living of St Andrew's was sequestered, but he was allowed to retain the rectory of Cheam.

On the accession of Charles II, his fortunes improved; he frequently preached before the king, and in 1661 was consecrated Bishop of Lichfield and Coventry after the bishopric was rejected by the Presbyterian leader Edmund Calamy the elder. His time at the Cathedral coming immediately after the English Civil War meant that Hacket had the unenviable task of overseeing the restoration of Lichfield Cathedral.

There is an effigy in remembrance of Bishop Hacket in Lichfield Cathedral.

Notes:

Birthplace if variously listed at Putferin, Scotland; Putferin, NB (North Britain aka Scotland); and Pitferran. Pitfirrane is a policy, a Scottish term for the improved grounds that surround a country house. It is located near Dunfermline, which was the capital of Scotland at the time.

Andrew's occupation as a tailor and his position as the Keeper of the Robes for Prince Henry son of King James VI may explain why he might have moved to England when King James ascended to the throne of England as King James I in 1603.

An account of the life and death of ... John Hacket, ed., with additions, by M.E.C. Walcott:
"His father was a tailor, and died 1621; he left to his two daughters, Elizabeth and Mary, 100 pounds each, and to his only son, John, the subject of this memoir, his dwelling house and chattels."

The head of the Halkett family held the title of baronet. A baronet is the holder of a baronetcy, a hereditary title awarded by the British Crown. The practice of awarding baronetcies was originally introduced in England in the 14th century and was used by James I of England in 1611 as a means of raising funds. According to the Annals of Dunfermline, the first Halkett Baronet was created in 1662, which is more than 100 years after Andrews reported birth.
