I am also related to the Guedesse's that you speak of. They are my Great-Great Grandparents. The original name is Geddes and got changed in the mid 1800's. Jean-Baptiste is the first generation that I know for sure used Guedesse. Jean and Louise both died in Rolette County, ND. If anyone would like to exchange information, please contact me at
