[[Charles II]], [[King]] of England, spent part of the years of his exile (during the [[English Interregnum]] of AD 1649-1660) on the island of Jersey, thanks to the support of [[Sir George Carteret]], bailiff and governor of Jersey. After his return to the throne, in AD 1665, Charles acknowledged Carteret's loyalty by granting him lands in the [[British Colonies]] on the east coast of [[America]]. Carteret gave the name [[New Jersey]] to his lands, and they are now part of the [[USA]].<ref>Cochrane, Willard W. (30 September 1993). The Development of American Agriculture.

Jersey was invaded and occupied by the [[German]] [[Nazis]] during the [[Second World War]] from AD 1940-1945.  A number of shipwrecks dating from that era pose a hazard to shipping, including the frigate HMS Troughtbridge, which was sunk by a German U-boat whilst on a mission to protect a food convoy on the Atlantic passage.
