The main page of the Beschulte Group website as of 18 July shows only a white flag with the wavy disc of the center. This symbol is shared by other companies: Dorchester, Baltic Marine Gdynia and possibly others.

Red Rose Navigation

If we leave out the special case of the Muscovy Merchants, I believe the only house flag not shown on FOTW-ws is that of the Red Rose Navigation Co. Ltd (second row, central image):
http://www.allatsea.cx/images/memorabilia/Peter_Murphy_House_Flags2.jpg
This firm is briefly mentioned here (url followed by quote): http://www.theshipslist.com/ships/lines/holt.htm
"In 1965 the Guinea Gulf Line with a subsidiary of Holt, the Red Rose Navigation Co. Ltd at Bermuda, was acquired by Elder Dempster Line Ltd..."
Elsewhere we learn that this company was established at Liverpool - just enter "bocna" under "Name" and click "SEARCH" (later click "VIEW"): http://www.hartlepoolbuilt.co.uk/form.html
I suppose Red Rose Navigation ('Bocna' was first named 'Rose of Lancaster' - also look at the funnel) moved to Bermuda for fiscal reasons. Certainly active 1958-1965 but no other ship found yet.
I find it hard to believe that the house flag was square but anyhow: dark blue field, large white disk bearing a red rose seeded and barbed green.
