[11] Thanks to the industry of Mr Dalton, the compiler of ‘British Army Lists and Commission Registers,’ it is possible to trace with some degree of accuracy the casualties among the officers of the regiment in many, though by no means all the battles and sieges between 1690 and 1712.
[12] In this and many other quotations from the regimental historians the dates are according to the “old style,” and do not correspond with those in this book, which are in the “new style.”
