Sir John St. Leger (died 1596), of Annery in the parish of Monkleigh, Devon, was an English politician. Sheriff of Devon in 1560, he was Member of Parliament for Dartmouth, Devon, in 1555-1558, Devon in 1559–1563, Arundel, Sussex, in 1563-1571, Devon again in 1571-1583 and Tregony, Cornwall in 1584-1585.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title= ST. LEGER, Sir John (by 1516-93/96), of Annery in Monkleigh, Devon. )〕 He was knighted in 1544. ==Origins== He was the son of Sir George St. Leger (c.1475-1536), of Annery, by his wife, Anne Knyvett, daughter of Edmund Knyvett. His paternal grandparents were Sir James St. Leger, of Shipton, and Lady Anne Butler, heiress of Annery, daughter of Thomas Butler, 7th Earl of Ormonde and great-aunt of Queen Anne Boleyn. One of his great-uncles was Sir Thomas St Leger (c.1440-1483), the husband of Anne of York, Duchess of Exeter (1439-1476), sister of Kings Edward IV and Richard III. His great-grandfather was Sir John St Leger (c.1404-1442) lord of the manor of Ulcombe in Kent, whose three sons Randolf (or Ralph), Thomas and James, all made advantageous marriages. The manor of Ulcombe had been held by the family from the See of Canterbury from shortly after the Norman Conquest of 1066, during which a St Leger knight is supposed by tradition to have supported William the Conqueror with his hand on disembarking from his ship at Pevensey.〔Hasted, Edward, History and Topographical Survey of the County of Kent: Volume 5, 1798, pp. 385-396 ()〕 The name was Latinised to ''de Sancto Leodegario''.
