We hve information on the St. John family going back to England, but I have yet to prove it out to my own satisfaction.  Another huge problem with this surname is the spelling for research purposes.  We have come across: St. John, St John, StJohn, Saint John as variations. While different spellings are not unusual in research it seems especially exasperation with this one.
