There were also wig-wags. Or flags held by a person and moved in specific directions to mean specific things. The lights had\have deflectors that open and close. Morris code was used.

Try your nearest historian (high school, collage, etc.) Or try your nearest renactors company, because they go to events where someone might know something, or go to an appasier, they can usually tell you what you have, possibly even what ship it's from. Good Luck!

In the UK, there are many antiques auctions going on at all times, such as Sotheby's or Henry's. These places employ specialists who can normally tell you offhand wat something is, and if you tel them you are considering entering it in the auction, it will be free of charge.
