Jersey issued a set of six stamps for the Huguenot heritage of which two have a maritime theme. The 22p shows the HMS RUBY http://www.shipstamps.co.uk/forum/viewt ... RUBY#p9292
The 15p shows Francis Voisin with on the background a Russian port with a British (looks she shows the British flag) full rigger alongside which is not identified.
Voisin and Company was founded by Francis Voisin on 5 April 1837 as a haberdashery shop at 26 King Street, Jersey. The company expanded throughout the 19th century, opening a men’s outfitters in 1838 and a furniture department in New Street in 1868.
Francis Voisin’s success stemmed largely from his determination to source the right goods for his store, and he went on many buying trips around the world. With his belongings tied up in a red handkerchief, he travelled to the Continent, Asia and America in pursuit of the perfect products for his customers. With his buying trips taking him to England and France for ribbons, to Belgium, Yorkshire and Northern Ireland for linen, to the Orient for silks and to Russia for furs, Francis Voisin was the most travelled Jerseyman of his time.
