One side of recent Guise History

which was the Giese Family from Denmark 

The suggestion  that a section of the De Guise Family escaped France to Denmark at the time of the revolution  has now been shown to be a complete myth.

Research, thanks to Sarah Guise, now shows that the Guise name was introduced by the Danish family Giese in the late 1800's,  probably by Therese Caroline Alexandrine Tourniaire, although the names were interchangeable for a while. Therese's death was registered under the name of Giese.

Jules Carl Giese (later Guise) from Denmark married Therese Caroline Alexandrine Tourniaire from France in 1880.They had 5 children and settled in England.

The results of that research are to be seen on the page The Giese Family.

One of Jules Carl's sons, Jules Guise married Vera Fleuss and they had one son Anthony Benoit and two daughters Yvonne and Maria

Anthony Benoit Guise, an artist and soldier in the 2nd World War, died in Columbo, Ceylon (now Sri Lanka ) on August 11 1944 while On Active Service.

He had just married and had one son.

Maria Guise worked as company secretary for Eutectic Alloys and lived at home caring for her mother. She died in 2004

Yvonne married Neal Callow to produce one son, Simon.
