The Voyage of the Beagle is a title commonly given to the book written by Charles Darwin published in 1839 as his Journal and Remarks, which brought him considerable fame and respect. The title refers to the second survey expedition of the ship HMS Beagle, which set out on 27 December 1831 under the command of captain Robert FitzRoy.
HMS is a prefix used in the names of British warships, meaning
His Majesty's Ship or Her Majesty's Ship
So the HMS Beagle was the ship that was used by Darwin on his 2nd survey expedition

Tracy Pragnell began HMS Chimney Service & Sales in August, 2004. HMS began when Tracy felt there was a need for quality stove and chimney service at affordable prices in the Wyo-Braska area. He also felt that by owning and running the business himself, he would have greater control over the quality and would be able to serve customers better. That has proven to be true with satisfied customers all over the area from Laramie, WY to Big Springs, NE.

HMS stands for "Her Majesty's Ship" in the British Royal Navy under the Queen of England. If and when Prince Charles ascends to the throne (I mean the "royal throne", not the other one), it will mean "His Majesty's Ship".
If the US had a monarchy, we'd probably use "HHMS" as in "His or Her Majesty's Ship"
