The following genealogy of the descendants of Peter and Philip de Visme is based largely on original documents. I initially started from Burke's Peerage (1874, 1938: the last edition with a section on foreign titles), Annuaire de la Noblesse de France 1865 (p. 223-228, largely based on various editions of Burke's Peerage), Burke's Commoners (IV:321), Ruvigny's Titled Nobility (1914, p. 1528). But these secondary sources are not always reliable and I have corrected as much as possible, though errors may remain.
Pierre de Visme (+3 Feb 1768, probate 16 Feb 1768)
admitted into freedom of City of London (haberdasher) 22 Oct 1728)
Hamburg merchant; of Bartholomew Lane, later Clapham
~ (27 Jun 1717 London) Madelaine Beaufils (bur. St Bartholomew 10 Sep 1760)
all children baptized at St Martin Orgars
Philippe (15 Sep 1687-buried 25 Oct 1756, Clapham, Surrey)
~ (26 Jul 1716, Spring Gardens Chapel, Charing Cross) Marianne de la Méjanelle (d. 16 Feb 1779)
all children baptized at St Martin Orgars
This sketch is based on the pages of Philippe Roelly's pages on Protestant genealogy in Picardy. I can't vouch for the accuracy of the lineage. It seems plausible enough, but I would want to check in the original sources now that they are online: but Catholic registers for Gouy only start in 1692, and have lacunae (1712-1730s).
The account is substantially the same as the one that appeared in the Annuaire de la Noblesse de France 1883, p. 216, except that the Annuaire identifies Marin's brother Jean with the ancestor of the Abbeville branch above (Jean ~ Catherine Lebas).This account comes from La Famille de Vismes by Philippe and Nicole Baudard de Fontaine (Éditions de Villiers 2005). It covers the descent from Jean de Vismes and Annette Courchel.
