Hatch was the son of Ira Sterns Hatch who had joined the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints in Kirtland, Ohio. Hatch was born in Farmersville, Cattaraugus County, New York. Hatch was among the first missionaries sent to proselyte in the Southern Indian Mission in 1854. 1858 Hatch was among the missionaries sent to work with the Native Americans along the Muddy River in Nevada. That year Hatch was also among the first Mormon missionaries to the Hopi. In 1862 Hatch was involved in another mission to the Hopi. He was one of three missionaries left behind when Jacob Hamblin led the rest of the missionaries north. In 1866, during Utah's Black Hawk War Hatch led a group that visited the and bands of Indians. On one occasion Hatch was serving a mission among the Mojave with Dudley Leavitt. The Mojave were going to kill Hatch and Leavitt, but Hatch offered a prayer for the people's hearts to be softened and they let Hatch and Leavitt go. Hatch was later among those who served as a missionary among the Navajo, basing his efforts out of Ramah, New Mexico. In 1871 Hatch served as Erastus Snow's interpreter during a visit to the Navajo.
