The [[Bengal Infantry Regiments]] were frequently reorganized and renumbered. Additonally, post-Mutiny numbers bear little relation to those previously held by regiments as many were disbanded.<ref>The details for the changes up to 1796 have been taken from [http://www.archive.org/stream/anhistoricalacc00willgoog#page/n7/mode/2up Captain John Williams ''An Historical Account of the Rise and Progress of the Bengal Native Infantry'' 1816] (archive.org) which does include a number of inconsistencies. Details for the changes in 1824 have been taken from [http://books.google.com/books?id=HS0oAAAAYAAJ&pg=PA615#v=onepage&q=o%3Dfalse&f=false ''The Asiatic Journal and Monthly Miscellany, Vol XVII 1824''] (Google Books).</ref>
