Frenchman, Renouard De Valayer established a postal system in Paris - 1653. Anthony Trollope obtained a position as a civil servant in the General Post Office, as a post-office surveyor. Before the introduction of pillar boxes, on the UK mainland, it was customary to take outgoing mail to the nearest letter receiving house or post office. Such houses were usually coaching inns or turnpike houses where the Royal Mail coach would stop to pick up and set down mails and passengers. People took their letters, in person, to the receiver, or postmaster, purchased a stamp and handed over the letter. The introduction of the pillar box had the side efect of allowing women to send letters to whomever they pleased, and men not knowing if and when these letters were being sent. In the British Isles the first pillar post boxes were erected in Jersey in 1852.
