She was the second daughter of François Guizot and the sister of Guillaume and Henriette Guizot.
She wrote Histoire de Guillaume le Conquérant ("History of William the Conqueror") and actively collaborated to her father's last work Histoire de France racontée à mes petits-enfants ("History of France told to my grand-children").
On May 18, 1850, she married historian and Calvados deputy Cornélis Henri de Witt,[1] with whom she had seven children.[2] Their two daughters Henriette and Pauline married the brothers Conrad and Cornélis Henri de Witt, who were also Protestants.
