Denys family
The surname Denys was borne by at least three prominent mediaeval families seated in Gloucestershire, Somerset and Devon in south-west England between 1166 and 1641. It is not known if any relationship existed between these families. The surname ''Denys'' is just one of many variant spellings of the name: ''Denise'', ''Le Deneis'', ''Le Danies'', ''le Deneys'' and most recently ''Dennis'', are some of the others.
The family of Denys was apparently of Danish origin,〔See for example Fuller's "Worthies", quoted by the Duchess of Cleveland's Battle Abbey Roll〕 and was recorded in early Norman charters in French as ''le Deneys'', meaning "The Dane", which was frequently Latinised by scribes as Dacus, being the adjectival form of ''Dacia'', the mediaeval Latin for Denmark, thus "Danish".

Several members of this branch of the family became High Sheriff of Gloucestershire. The first was Sir Gilbert Denys (c. 1350 – 1422); others included Maurice Denys (c. 1410 – 1466), Sir William Denys (1470–1533) and Henry Dennis (Feb 1594 – 26 June 1638).
