Sir John Guise, 3rd Baronet

Sir John Guise, 3rd Baronet ( 1677–1732) of Elmore Court, Gloucestershire was a British landowner and politician who sat in the House of Commons between 1705 and 1727.

Guise was the only son of Sir John Guise, 2nd Baronet and his wife Elizabeth Howe, daughter of John Grubham Howe, MP of Compton Abdale, Gloucestershire and Langar, Nottinghamshire. He was granted the office of Constable of Gloucester Castle in May 1690, at the age of 12 and his father put him forward at the1695 general election for Cirencester. He was unsuccessful there. He succeeded to the baronetcy on the death of his father on 19 November 1695 and he tried to replace his father as MP for Gloucestershire by standing in the ensuing by-election. Despite spending £1,000, he was defeated. In 1697 he was Colonel of the White Regiment of Gloucestershire Militia.

Guise married by licence dated 4 June 1696, Elizabeth Napier, daughter of Sir Nathaniel Napier, 2nd Baronet, MP of Critchell More, Dorset. His father's estate was in a parlous financial state, and he was bound by his wife's trustees in a tight marriage settlement which forced him to retrench. He was still involved in politics but wavered between his Tory uncle Jack Howe and the local Whig gentry. His wife died in 1701 and he stood at the 1702 general election at Gloucestershire. Although he won more votes than his uncle, the Sheriff discounted many of them leaving him to petition unsuccessfully.

Guise died on 16 November 1732 leaving an only son by his first wife, John, who succeeded to the baronetcy.
