Edward St. Lo

Lo (died 14 April 1729) was a Royal Navy officer who served as Commander-in-Chief of the Jamaica Station.

Lo was promoted to post captain on 9 September 1703 on appointment to the command of the fourth-rate HMS Pendennis.

Following his acquittal at court martial for the loss of the Gosport to the French third-rank ship Jason, he commanded the fifth-rate HMS Tartar in 1707.

Lo became Commander-in-Chief of the Jamaica Station, with his flag in the third-rate HMS Superb, in August 1727,[3] following the death of Admiral Francis Hosier from tropical diseases, in charge of a small squadron which was undertaking a Blockade of Porto Bello during the Anglo-Spanish War.

He was promoted to Rear Admiral on 29 March 1729 but died himself from the same diseases on 14 April 1729.
