I would like to SUGGEST van der Chijs, out of West Flanders, Belgium.
It eems to be the SOURCE for the Cys name, AKA Sys, which seems to be
the Root for SCISM, in America. (van der Chijs> Van der Sys> Van Sys,
Van Syssen, > Syssen >Cissum >Cism> Scism)
Just a POSSIBILITY.

Now there is something about 80 columns and 12 zones....OH YES, and the

I am also a Chism with roots in Arkansas. My family migrated from Hardeman and Jackson counties in Tennessee to Arkansas in the early part of the 20th century, settling around Forrest City Ark. I am an African-American / Native American Chism. I have seen a copy of the book on the history of the Chism family. The Chisms held slaves and many of my ancestors share the same names as Chisms in the book, so I think there may be a connection. Were your Chisms mixed with Creek or Choctaw Indians? To get to the point Here is what I have seen about locating the book. This message was posted on rootsweb Aug 5, 2000. for copies of the book write to John Chism, 1027 Berkley Drive, Clemson South Carolina 29631. I hope this can be of help. any info you can share would be greatlly apprieciated Cheryl

Greetings to you all!
I am an Arkansas Chism currently living in the UK and would be looking
to get hold of a book I was once shown "the book of Chism" which had us
all going back to a Jacobite from Scotland somewhere - any ideas?
Cheers
Will
