The Nafziger Collection of Orders of Battle

All the following links are pdf documents from The Nafziger Collection of Orders of Battle which are derived from sources such as The Army and Navy Gazette, which contain information relating to the Royal Artillery in India. Some documents are limited in the information provided.

Text documents may also be accessed from the Nafziger Collection website.

Although there does not appear to be any information relating to British troops in India after 1904 on the Nafziger Collection website, there is information availble prior to 1862 but whether it includes information about the Royal Artillery has not been determined.
