- Emile Henry Muselier was a French admiral who led the Free French Naval Forces during World War II. He was responsible for the idea of distinguishing his fleet from that of Vichy France by adopting the Cross of Lorraine, which later became the emblem of all of the Free French. After entering the French Naval Academy in 1899, he embarked on a brilliant and eventful military career. He ran unsuccessfully in the legislative elections of 1946 as vice-president of the Rally of Republican Lefts, and then entered private life as a consulting engineer before his retirement in 1960. He is buried in the cemetery of St. Pierre, at Marseilles.
- Émile Henry Muselier, né à Marseille le 17 avril 1882 et décédé à Toulon le 2 septembre 1965, est un amiral français qui organisa les Forces navales françaises libres. C'est lui qui eut l'idée de distinguer sa flotte, de celle de Vichy, en adoptant la croix de Lorraine (en souvenir de son père d'origine lorraine), qui devint ensuite l'emblème de toute la France libre et effectua le ralliement de Saint-Pierre-et-Miquelon à la France libre. Entré à l'École navale en 1899 et après une carrière militaire, brillante mais mouvementée, il tentera vainement sa chance aux élections législatives de 1946, en tant que vice-président du Rassemblement des gauches républicaines, avant de se reconvertir comme ingénieur conseil dans le privé jusqu'en 1960. Il est inhumé au cimetière Saint-Pierre, à Marseille.
