  JOHN DE SAINT LO III, Son and heir of John II Saint Lo
  "This family of the St. Loes is said to take name from the town of St. Laud in Normandy, over the gates of which their arms were to be seen in the 17th century. When they came to England is uncertain, for their name is not in the Battle Abbey Roll, and though their arms were, when John Strachey wrote, within a Garter impaling Ancel in the roof of their aisle at Chew, yet, he says, neither Ashmole nor Hylan have their names among the knights or registers of that order. The first mention of them in this county is that, 47 Henry III (1262/3), John de Sancto Laudo holds half a fee in Niweton and Puppelow. John de Sancto Laudo was sheriff of Dorset and Somerset for six years, from 1284 to 1290, in Edward I's reign, and the lists of their manors show them to have been a great family. Their pedigree and arms are given by John Strachey, and he observes that St. Loe of Newton was he whom Leland calls Lord Seintelo, from a young brother of whom Sir John St. Loe of Sutton, was descended."
