The Regiment was formed from Independent Companies of Musketeers and Pikemen in Devonshire.

It was nicknamed “The Green Howards” or “Howard’s Garbage” from its facings, and Colonel’s name from 1738 to 1748, and to distinguish it from the 3rd Foot, which was also commanded by a Colonel Howard at that time.
