  St Leger Family - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Leger (pronounced Saint Ledger) family is an old Anglo-Irish family with Norman roots, whose name has appeared a few times in history.
"St." is an abbreviation of Saint, and the whole name is an anglicized version of "de Sancto Leodegario".
Branches of the family have dropped the Saint part of the name, some partly for religious reasons during the reformation as the name is percieved as strongly Catholic.
