Madras Infantry Finder

The Madras Native Infantry were frequently reorganized and renumbered.

This table allows you to find any 'native' regiment in the Madras Infantry in the Madras Presidency between 1758 and 1895 and the Indian Army between 1895 and 1903.

• Click on the name of the regiment you are seeking under the year you require and it will link to the page in FibiWiki.
• For example if you select 13th Regiment in 1795 it will bring up the page for the 4th Regiment of Bengal Native Infantry which shows that it was called 13th between 1781 and 1796.

Where information is still to be traced, TBT has been entered.
