________________________________________

<http://www.rogerco.freeserve.co.uk/cfive.html>

Sir William Vernon Guise F.G.S., F.L.S. (1816-24th September 1887) merits a special mention as his collection of fossils was the first major geological collection to be offered to the proposed new public County Museum in Gloucester. The fossils still exists in the Gloucester City Museums reference collections. He was President of the Cotteswold Naturalists Field Club for twenty eight years from 1859 to 1887, by far the longest serving president. He had some artistic ability judging from the illustrations he contributed to the Rev. W.S.Symonds book "Record of the Rocks".
Guise was a Magistrate and the Deputy-Lieutenant for Gloucestershire. He served as High Sheriff for the County in 1872 and a Lieutenant-Colonel of the Royal South Gloucestershire Militia. On the 18th May 1881, Sir William (he ascended to the baronetcy in 1865) promised to donate the remainder of his collection of "British Marine, Estuarine and Freshwater Shells" and also a selection of ammonites and other Inferior Oolite fossils from Bradford Abbas, to Gloucester Museum, the ammonites are still in the collection. He died on the 24th September 1887 at his home, Elmore Court, near Gloucester.

Hi Richard
I have a Richard Guise who was a member of the NSW Corps arriving in Australia with the 2nd Fleet (possible ship the "Pitt"), with his wife Elizabeth.
They had 3 children born in Sydney, after Richard's death, his wife Elizabeth moved to Gundaroo to live with her son, also Richard.
This information gathered from the book "Gundaroo".

Richard GUISE was a sergeant in the New South Wales Corps who settled in Liverpool on grants of land and also held liquor licences. The three children were Richard Junior, William and Elizabeth. Richard and William were landowners at Gundaroo and Bywong, near Canberra, and elsewhere in New South Wales. Elizabeth married William KLENSENDORFFE, who owned land near the present site of Parliament House in Canberra.
There is considerable lead information about the family in Colonial records - http://www.records.nsw.gov.au/publications/colsec/g/F22c_gos-gy-19.htm
though these are only the basic references.

William, born 25 May 1796 married Catherine ALLEN and had a daughter Mary Ann, born 24 June 1832, who married George Moore BROWNLOW on 20 August 1850. they had a daughter Catherine, born 1851 at Jerribiggery, near Gundaroo, and who married John BRADNEY in 1869. their son John, born 1874, served with NSW and Australian forces in South Africa (1901-1902) and France (1916-1917). There are 'skeletons'.

After John's death in France his sister wrote to the Army in Australia and in her letter said - 'we come of a fighting stock being descended on our mother's side of the historic GUISE family. We are the 4th generation of Australian natives. Our great great grandfather sergeant Guise of 102nd Reg. came to Australia later part of 1790 in charge of consigned men. The Guise family became rich later and owned several stations and large grants of land at Gundaroo near Federal Capital Territory and were the first people buried in their family vault in the historic church grounds (Church of St John the Baptist at Canberra)'. This and other records are held at the Australian War memorial.

Les

Thankyou for that information, a few new facts have come out of it and I have some new clues to chase. Richard (1) is my husband's g-g-g-g-g-grandfather and quite a few landmarks in the area are named after the extended family. I believe that Richard was wounded while in Ceylon while a member of Macquarie's 73rd, will try to find out more info in that direction next. Any suggestions on military sites would be appreciated if available.

One of my father's cousins produced several years ago a family tree of the offspring of John and Elizabeth GUISE of Fladbury who were married in 1702. If anyone has connections to this family tree I would be interested in hearing from them. I am willing to share the information I have.

Christopher Guice was born on July 25, 1718 and is believed to have married about 1745 in Philadelphia to Margaret PLOWHEAD born April 19, 1728 in Germany. In 1778 they moved to Nashboro and appear on the Honor Roll of General James Robertson. He applied for a grant at Pensacola 1n 1776 and received a British grant near old Selsertown in the Natchez District in 1778. ~~Here the Christopher Guice family became involved in the expulsion of the Spanish Catholic Government at Natchez and were forced to flee for their lives ( These turn of events to be included but not completed )

~~~Christopher Guice, Sr., with his sons Christopher Guice, Jr. and Jonathan Guice were made a part of the request to the North Carolina Assembly on May 10, 1784, for land grants of 640 acres at Fort Nashboro, according to the North Carolina State Papers (24-629 & 19-573). ~~ In North Carolina Land Grants in Tennessee 1778-91, we find; Christopher Guice, Jr. received a military grant of 640 acres, assigned to the heirs of Robert Chersmey, Private, dated 1786 in Davidson County, on Guice's Creek. (III,ICO) and Jonathan Guice received 640 acres in 1787, Davidson County, on South side of Cumberland River, assigned by William Collins, Private, disabled. (III,531). ~~In the Davidson County marriages we find one son ; Jacob to Elizabeth Bickley on February 2, 1789. ~~ In 1792 Christopher Guice, Sr. moved into what became Franklin County in 1809, disposing of his land near Selsertown to his son Jonathan. We do not have the date of his death. Christopher Guice and Margaret Plowhead had thirteen children.

Année de naissance : 1496

Année de décès : 1550

[possible ancestor of an Alsace branch, &/or of Claude Guise of Strassbourg, br. of Christopher & Wilhelm, of whom are various Guices of Maryland.  It should be noted that the families of Aisne, Lothringen & Normandy are probably very anciently related, via the town of Guise].

Christopher Guice's b. 1718 parents were
Capt. Richard Guice and Zipporah Murray. Richard's parents were Christopher Guise b 1655 and Edith Cromwell granddaughter of Lord Oliver CROMWELL. I'll have to get my notes. After that I get confused. I think it was Christopher Guise b. 1620 and Anne Washington. Christopher b. early 1700's was fluent in 6 languages and could understand and speak some in several other languages.

I am from this lineage and would appreciate any info you have on the Cromwell line. My have from my research that the family name of Christopher was GIST or GUEST. Was wondering where you got the spelling Guise. Please email me with any information and would be happy to share what I know.
Sincerely,

I have from a professional genealogist that Guise, de Guise, Gist, Guice and Guest, and various spellings are all from the same family. As back in those days a person spelt his/her name the way it sounds and the same person may spell their own name 5 or 6 different ways.

I found a wonderful site regarding the deGuise/"of Guise" name. The address is: http://genealogy.miningco.com Click on "Royal Genealogy", and choose "Scotland". Page down to "Stuart, Mary "Queen of Scots"", and about 2-3 generations back will take you to Henry. Hope this helps!

I was informed by a cousin in San Diego, CA that the heraldry of Britain contains two Coats of arms that are identical in make up. One is for the GUISE Family and the other is for the GIST Family. I have found accounts that indicate that the GUISE of France lost favor with the King and fled execution at the hand of same and changed their name to GIST in Wales.  Can anyone verify those claims or can anyone totally debunk them.
