- named after Isaac Brock's brother [DWT]. Brock had several brothers, but the one referred to is Daniel De Lisle Brock: Daniel De Lisle was born on December 10th, 1762. In 1795 he was elected a jurat [* See Below] of the royal court. He went to London in connection with trade and other ancient privileges of the island. Afterwards he assumed the very influential position of lieutenant-bailiff or chief magistrate of Guernsey. He was responsible for building Elizabeth College which today is a very popular boys' school.
De Lisle was Isaac's mother's maiden name. Coming from the Channel Islands, the French name is not surprising.
