Many branches in England, Canada and the USA.
The Newfoundland & Devon, England connection is very historical.

Southcote, or Southcott, originally of Southcote in Winkleigh. — This ancient family was of Southcote in the reign of Henry III. The elder branch, into which the heiresses of Keynes and Pury, and a coheiress of Bosum, had married, became extinct in the sixteenth century.
The heiress married Callard. John Southcote, appointed one of the justices of the King's Bench in 1562, was son of a younger brother of the last Southcote of this place. The Southcotes of Indiho, in Bovey Tracey, and of Mohun's Ottery , were descended from a second son.
Mohun's Ottery was sold by Thomas Southcote, then the representative of this branch, in 1678. At Collumpton is a monument without date, said to be for the last heir male of the Southcote family; the last probably of this branch.
Sir George Southcote, of Shillingford, eldest son of Thomas Southcote, of Indiho, by his third wife, married a co-heiress of Cole, of Buckland Touissaints, and was ancestor of the late John Henry Southcote, Esq., who sold Buckland, and died in 1820.
Another branch of this family, descended from a younger son of Southcote of Indiho, was of Calverleigh, which was sold before 1700 to Sir Henry Fane: a co-heiress of Robins married into this branch.
A younger branch of the Southcotes of Calverleigh settled at Dulcis, in Kilmington, in consequence of a marriage with the heiress of Frye. The heiress of the elder son of this branch brought Dulcis to the Hallets: a younger son settled at Colwell, in Offwell, having married the heiress of Collins.
The late Michael Southcote, of this line, married the heiress of Popkin, of Wales: his elder son, erroneously supposing himself descended from the Southcotes of Bliborough, in Lincolnshire, assumed the title of baronet; he died without issue, and his younger brothers, Henry and Philip, are supposed to be the only male descendants of the family.
Arms: — Arg., a chevron, G., between 3 coots, Proper.
from my Pomeroy researches there is a Barbara Southcot who married Hugh Pomeroy of Ingson in the parish of Ilsington on 5th feb 1543 at Bovey Tracey- she died 1563 - they had 11 children their son Thomas maried Elizabeth henscot and had a daughter Barbara Pomeroy who married a Stephen Southcot on 30 Dec 1611 at Ilsington i. her 1st husband - they dont appear to have children but Im reading a Pomeroy Pedigree so if you examine a Southcot pedigree in Visitations you might find more.
Just google Devon Visitations the Nigel Batty Smith UK Genealogy has them
my website has a page
