The purpose of this site is to list those regiments of the British Army that served in Canada and to provide details of the dates they served in Canada and the locations in which they served. The initial list was from an inventory of British Military records held by the National Archives of Canada, the dates with the regiments name being from that list. If no date appears, it means the National Archives did not list that particular regiment.

Further details were extracted from:

"Records and Badges of the British Army, 1900" by Henry M. Chichester and George Burges Short. These additional details are shown below the regiments name. Except for the 100th Foot, the extraction is complete.

I have not at this time included much on the Engineers, Medical, Ordnance etc. and only a little on the Artillery, but will attempt to complete these when material becomes available to me. Volunteers & Redcoats mentions Royal Engineers, Royal Sappers & Miners, Royal Artillery and Royal Marines.
