Historical References
"SERLE. From Serlo, a Norman personal name. Serlo, the clerk who was present in curia regis at Roxburgh, 1159 (Annals, p. 40), is perhaps Serlo, clericus regis Scocie, who gave half a ploughgate of Sprouston to the Abbey of Kelso, p. 1165 (Kelso, 216). Serlon, incisor, held land in Perth in the reign of William the Lion (Scon, p. 30). Serlon the clerk was a charter witness between 1211-39 (RAA., i, p. 42, 87, 263). Serlo, talliator, charter witness in Perth, c. 1200 (LAC., 66), may be Serlo, talbator, son of William Loueprud, burgess of Perth, 1219 (Scon, p. 52). Serlone de Seton appears c. 1250 (RAA., i, p. 266), and Serlo of St. Andrews granted a manse at Colessy to Lindores Abbey, c. 1262 (LAC., p. 98). John Serle, burgess of Perth, rendered homage, 1296 (Bain, n, p. 187, 197), and Alexander Serle appears in barony of Rate, 1491 (Scon, p. 198). "(The surnames of Scotland. George Fraser Black, 1866-1948)
