Edward St Lo 1519-1578

Paternal Family Tree: St Lo

In or before 1518 [his father] John St Lo [aged 17] and [his mother] Margaret Kingston were married. They were fifth cousins.

Around 1519 Edward St Lo was born to John St Lo [aged 19] and Margaret Kingston at Collingbourne Kingston, Wiltshire [Map].

In May 1556 Edward St Lo [aged 37] was imprisoned at the Fleet Prison [Map] for complicity in the Dudley Consipracy.

In 1559 Edward St Lo [aged 40] was elected MP Bath.

Before 23rd March 1559 [his father] John St Lo [aged 59] died.

Before 1561 Edward St Lo [aged 41] and Bridget Malte were married.

Before 1561 John Scutt and [his wife] Bridget Malte were married.

Around March 1561 Bess of Hardwick [aged 34] was poisoned. Both William St Lo [aged 43] and his mother Margaret Kingston believed William's younger brother Edward St Lo [aged 42] to be guility. Edward St Lo feared he would lose his inheritance if William and Bess had a child. William St Lo, probably as a consequence of his brother's actions, 'did of very good will toward [his wife] convey [his lands] unto her'. Edward had previously been suspected of poisoning his first wife's husband John Scutt and, following their marriage, his wife Bridget Malte.

In January 1565 William St Lo [aged 47] died suddenly in the company of his brother Edward St Lo [aged 46]. He was buried in St Helen's Church, Bishopsgate. Given that he had been suspected of poisoning William's wife Bess of Hardwick [aged 38] five years before it is possible Edward had poisoned William. Edward St Lo contested his brother's will unsuccessfully.

In 1572 Edward St Lo [aged 53] was elected MP Downton.

Chronicle of Geoffrey le Baker of Swinbroke

Baker was a secular clerk from Swinbroke, now Swinbrook, an Oxfordshire village two miles east of Burford. His Chronicle describes the events of the period 1303-1356: Gaveston, Bannockburn, Boroughbridge, the murder of King Edward II, the Scottish Wars, Sluys, Crécy, the Black Death, Winchelsea and Poitiers. To quote Herbert Bruce 'it possesses a vigorous and characteristic style, and its value for particular events between 1303 and 1356 has been recognised by its editor and by subsequent writers'. The book provides remarkable detail about the events it describes. Baker's text has been augmented with hundreds of notes, including extracts from other contemporary chronicles, such as the Annales Londonienses, Annales Paulini, Murimuth, Lanercost, Avesbury, Guisborough and Froissart to enrich the reader's understanding. The translation takes as its source the 'Chronicon Galfridi le Baker de Swynebroke' published in 1889, edited by Edward Maunde Thompson.
