Griffin was a son of Sir Thomas Griffin of Dingley and Gumley Ewing Northamptonshire. He matriculated at Exeter College, Oxford on 16 October 1601, aged 14. He was a student of Middle Temple in 1604. He was knighted on 20 May 1625. King James and Anne of Denmark came from Kirby Hall and visited him at Braybrooke Castle on 12 August 1605. King James knighted him at Grafton on 19 August 1608. He gained the estates of his older brother, Sir Thomas Griffin, on his death in 1615. Thomas Griffin had married Catherine Morton, daughter of Sir John Morton, and secondly, Elizabeth Touchet, a daughter of George Touchet, Lord Audley, but had no male heir. His first wife was Lucy.
