The Franche Ville Bank was one of several short-lived private banks that emerged in Jersey during the 1820s and 1830s, operating outside the oversight structures that governed mainland British banking. It failed, as most of them did, leaving noteholders exposed. The two-year window of 1833–1835 almost certainly brackets collapse rather than planned closure.
W. Adams engraved and printed locally at 4 Library Place — a rare instance of a Jersey private bank not importing its plates from London. That decision kept costs down but also meant security features were rudimentary by the standards of the period.
