N.B.—In the lists of the Captains who commanded the various companies, the names and titles borne by them at the date they commanded have alone been given. Very many of these officers afterwards received distinguishing titles and orders,—but it would not have been historically correct to anticipate their receipt of such honours.


52.  The Peninsular operations in which this Troop was engaged are copied from Sir Hew Ross's MSS.

53.  This officer was transferred to D Troop on the reduction of L Troop.

54.  Lieutenant T. F. Strangways commanded at this action.

55.  This officer commanded when it consisted merely of Rocket detachments, and was not yet organized into a Troop. He was killed at Leipsic.

56.  Captain Geary was killed in command of the Company at Roleia.

57.  Killed in action during Kaffir War.

58.  Captain Hardy was killed at the relief of Lucknow.

59.  Detachments of the Company had been previously employed in the several captures of the enemy's possessions in that quarter since the recommencement of hostilities in 1803.

60.  N.B.—This was the only battery engaged at the Battle of the Tchernaya.

61.  Thanked in Orders by Sir S. Achmuty.

62.  Cust.

63.  Lieutenant Carter had been taken prisoner by the enemy's fleet on Lake Ontario in 1813, and was closely shut up to be hanged in retaliation for deserters. He succeeded, however, in making his escape, and after travelling 1500 miles of country, joined his company previously to the opening of the campaign of 1814.
