1st Batt.

1794-96. The 98th (Argyllshire Highlanders) Regiment of Foot; renumbered.

1796-1809. The 91st (Argyllshire Highlanders) Regiment of Foot. Three other corps had previously borne this number; neither had been retained longer than four years.

1809-21. The 91st Regiment of Foot; its distinctive title was probably dropped for the same reason that the Highland dress was for a time discarded, because of its supposed impediment to recruiting.

1821-64. The 91st (Argyllshire) Regiment of Foot.

1864-72. The 91st (Argyllshire) Highlanders.

1872-1881. The 91st (Princess Louise's Argyllshire) Highlanders.

2nd Batt.

1760-96. The 93rd Regiment of Foot; during this period three 93rds were raised and disbanded—1760-63; 1779-83 (American War); and 1793-96 (served in Demerara, Essequibo, and Berbice, and then was drafted into the 39th).

1800-61. The 93rd Highlanders.
