Anciently there were two flemish families named "de Seton", of Carolingian descent settled in Seaton-Staithes in Northumberland in England. The first of the race who came into Scotland was Seier (or Seyerus, Seyer, Secher or Saiker) de Lens, the eldest son of Count Lambert de Lens by his first wife, and who came during the reign of Malcolm III and who obtained from David I, the lands in Haddingtonshire and who was the ancestor of the noble family of Seton, Barons and Lords Seton, and Earls of Winton. He was the son of Dugal or Dougall de Seytoun, by his wife, a daughter of De Quincy, earl of Winchester, constable of Scotland..."
