Lewis Devisme (25 September 1720 – 4 September 1776 Stockholm, Sweden) was a British diplomat.
==Family==
Christened on 7 October 1720 at the French Huguenot Church of St Martin Orgar in Martin Lane, Cannon Street, London, Lewis Devisme was the fourth child and third son of Philippe de Visme, a successful City merchant, by Marianne de la Mejanelle his wife. Ostensibly, he appears to have been named after his godfather, Louis Ragueneau de la Chainaye, but his father may have had his own uncle, Louis de Visme of Gouy L'Hopital in Picardy, at the forefront of his mind when he came to think of a name for his new son.〔The National Archives; Kew, England; General Register Office: Registers of Births, Marriages and Deaths surrendered to the Non-parochial Registers Commissions of 1837 and 1857; Class: RG 4; Piece: 4586.
〕 Lewis's father Philippe was a Huguenot refugee who had been born in Gouy L'Hopital in September 1687, third son of Pierre de Visme and Marie Le Roy.〔Rolande Delguste-Devismes, ''Pendant la Tourmente Religieuse,'' Bordeaux, 2008, p. 69〕 He emigrated to London at some time before his naturalisation by Oath Roll in January 1710,〔Ed. William A. Shaw, ''Letters of Denization and Acts of Naturalisation for Aliens in England and Ireland 1701-1800,'' page 96〕 perhaps being joined by his elder brother, Pierre or Peter de Visme, shortly before the latter was naturalised by an Act of Parliament in July 1717.〔As previous note, page 122. Pierre is stated as being the son of 'Peter Devisme, by Mary his wife, born at Couy in Picardy'〕 Philippe was married by special licence at the Spring Gardens Chapel in the Strand on 26 July 1716,〔The National Archives; Kew, England; General Register Office: Registers of Births, Marriages and Deaths surrendered to the Non-parochial Registers Commissions of 1837 and 1857; Class: RG 4; Piece: 4641. The original text reads:''Philippe de Visme; et Marieanne de la Mejanelle; ont recu la benediction nuptialle dans l'Eglise de Spring Garden, le 26 juillet 1716. par Mr. Guillaume Ducros Ministre de la Savoye; en vertu d'une dispence de Milord Archeveque de Canterbury en date du 25 jour dudit mois et an''〕 and together Philippe and Marianne had a total of 13 children. Living initially in the parish of St Lawrence Jewry, the brothers Peter and Philip Devisme later moved to the parish of St Mary Aldermary in the vicinity of Bow Lane off Cheapside at the back of St Paul's Cathedral, before moving to the parish of St Bartholomew-by-the-Exchange where Philippe had offices in Throgmorton Street.〔City directories, Guildhall Library; church records and Land Tax records for London, London Metropolitan Archives〕 Although granted the Freedom of the City of London in October 1728,〔Freedom admissions papers, 1681 – 1925.
