  • THE 24Th REGIMENTS LINKS with the COUNTY of WARWICKSHIRE
    THE 24th REGIMENT’S LINKS WITH THE COUNTY OF WARWICKSHIRE. A revision of the article of the same name from the Journal of the Anglo Zulu War Historical Society, June 1997. (Inaugural Edition). By Derrick Smart __________________________________________________________________________________ ‘Regiments are raised in troubled times’. The birth of the 24th Regiment was in accordance with this dictum. In the early months of 1689 William and Mary newly arrived from Holland, reigned uneasily over a country still recovering from James II’s determined bid to regain the throne of England in the revolution of 1688. That revolution led to war with Louis X1V’s France (Louis had championed the ill-fated James); and to fight the war it was necessary to provide troops. King William as was the custom of the times, sent off Commissions to the noblemen and landowners who supported his cause. One such Commission went to Sir Edward Dering, 3rd Baronet, of Surrenden in Kent. The Commission was acted upon at once. It was dated 8th March 1689 and by 28th March, the first muster was held and Dering’s Regiment became part of the Standing Army and thereafter named after the Colonel (1). The Royal Warrant of 1st July 1751 listing precedence gave the Regiment seniority as the 24th Regiment of Foot. The 24th formed a 2nd Battalion in Lincolnshire in 1756, which was used in 1758 to form the 69th Regiment of Foot. In 1782 they were re-titled as the 69th (South Lincolnshire) Regiment of Foot. The 24th Regiment’s 2nd Battalion was re-formed in Warwick in 1804 being disbanded in 1814.

  • General Military Regiments of Foot. a Historical Record of All the Foot
    www.GetPedia.com Also by H. L. Wickes REGIMENTS OF HORSE H.L. WICKES Regiments of Foot A historical record of all the foot regiments of the British Army OSPREY This book is dedicated to the memory of my eldest son, the late Captain Christopher Wickes, R.E. Published in 1974 by Osprey Publishing Ltd., 137 Southampton Street Reading, Berkshire © Copyright 1974 H. L. Wickes All rights reserved Printed in Great Britain by The Camelot Press Ltd, Southampton ISBN o 85045 220 1 PREFACE In no way does this small book claim to be a history of the British Army: such a subject would necessitate many large volumes. Nor does it comprise a complete record of the memorable battles and campaigns in which the various regiments have been engaged. Rather, it is in the nature of a search for an answer to the question, 'What became of the regiments of foot?' The last few years have seen the disappearance of many famous regiments, due to amalgamations and the formation of new 'large' regiments. I have endeavoured here to give a brief history of each of the numbered regiments, from its initial establishment to the present-day formation, touching in each case on its origins, traditions, service record and, where appropriate, its most famous engagements. It is said that battles are the punctuation marks of a regiment's history. Up to about 1750, a regiment when raised was usually named after some royal personage or after the commanding officer. It was in 1743 that the rank or number of regiments was first confirmed by Royal Warrant.
