Delpierre was a fishing company established in Boulogne-sur-Mer.
Pierre Delpierre (1873-1929) commanded the Petit Poilu, a steam
trawler built in the Selby shipyard in 1920 and sunk by the German
Navy off Brest in 1940.
In 1956, the Pêcheries Delpierre company published the book
Boulogne grand port de pêche, texts by Roger Vercel and
illustrations by Mathurin Méheut, as a tribute to those lost at sea
during the wreckage of the trawler Colbert on 26 November 1955. The
company was still active in 1965. In the 1960s-1970s, Delpierre
owned two trawlers built in the famous Polish shipyards of Gdynia, the
Boulonnais and the Equiennois.

House flag of Gournay-Delpierre, two versions - Images by Ivan Sache, 31 October 2010
Gournay-Delpierre & Cie owned in the 1920s two trawlers purchased from the Royal Navy. The Notre-Dame-de-Lorette, purchased in 1921, was kept by the company - listed in 1932 as Gournay Frères -, requisitioned and eventually sunk on 21 May 1940 in Dunkirk. The Notre-Dame-de-France, purchased in 1923, was sold in 1925 to a Grimsby company and eventually lost in 1941, as the Icelandic Fvidi.
The Olson's Fisherman's Nautical Almanack (1914) shows the company's house flag as a triangular flag horizontally divided red-white. The Yearbook of the Central Committee of France Shipowners (1922) shows a similar flag, but with a yellow star in the middle, which is confirmed by the flag illustrating a bill issued on 23 February 1914 by Gournay-Delpierre & Cie.
