Background

The Royal Berkshire Regiment (Princess Charlotte of Wales's) was a line infantry regiment of the British Army from 1881 until 1959. The Regiment was officially formed in 1881 as he Princess Charlotte of Wales's (Royal Berkshire Regiment), by the amalgamation of the 49th (Princess Charlotte of Wales's) (Hertfordshire) Regiment of Foot and the 66th (Berkshire) Regiment of Foot as part of the Childers Reforms. However the Regiment can trace its history back a further hundred years prior to this date.

The 49th was first formed in 1744 in Jamaica through the amalgamation of the eight independent companies garrisoned there. The Governor, Edward Trelawney was appointed Colonel and as was the tradition of the time the Regiment was named after the current colonel as Trelawney’s Regiment. This tradition continued until 1748 when the Regimental naming system was simplified and all were assigned ranked numbers, the Regiment first became the 63rd but in 1748 was renumbered the 49th Regiment of Foot. The Regiment remained in Jamaica until 1764 but saw its first major actions during The American War of Independence, fighting at the occupation of Philadelphia (1777) and the battle of Brandywine. After the French entered the war in 1778 the 49th were sent to defend the West Indies and seized St. Lucia before the French arrived. In 1782 Regiments without Royal titles were given county titles to assist in recruiting and the 49th became the 49th (Hertfordshire) Regiment. From 1805 to 1812 the 49th was under the command of Colonel Isaac Brock, who had risen through the ranks of the 49th to become Colonel and later second in command to Lord Admiral Nelson. From 1802 to 1814 the 49th served in Canada and fought at The Battle of Queenstown Heights (1812) where General Sir Isaac Brock fell.

In 1815 The 49th Regiment returned to England from Canada and took over duties of guarding members of the Royal family residing at Weymouth. The young Princess Charlotte, granddaughter of George III, was so impressed by the Regiment that she begged for the 49th to become 'her' Regiment. The title was awarded and the 49th became the Princess Charlotte of Wales' Hertfordshire Regiment. The Regiment went on to serve during the First Opium War (1839–42) and Crimean War (1853–56).

The 66th was formed in 1756 during the Seven Years' War as a second battalion of the 19th Regiment and became an independent Regiment in 1758 and numbered the 66th Regiment of Foot. In 1764 the Regiment went to Jamaica to relieve the 49th Regiment. In 1782 the Regiment received the county title of Berkshire to aid recruitment from that region. The Regiment fought during the Peninsular War in 1803 and was then sent to guard Napoleon on St. Helena in 1816 following his defeat at Waterloo. In 1821 the grenadiers of the 20th and 66th were his bearers to his grave; after this the Regiment returned to England and had postings to Gibraltar and the West Indies. It went on to fight at the battle of Maiwand in 1880 as part of the Second Anglo-Afghan War.

It was renamed the Royal Berkshire Regiment (Princess Charlotte of Wales's) in 1921.

The regiment saw active service in the Second Boer War, World War I and World War II. On 9 June 1959, the Royal Berkshire Regiment (Princess Charlotte of Wales's) was amalgamated with the Wiltshire Regiment (Duke of Edinburgh's) to form the Duke of Edinburgh's Royal Regiment (Berkshire and Wiltshire) which was again amalgamated, on 27 July 1994, with the Gloucestershire Regiment to create the Royal Gloucestershire, Berkshire and Wiltshire Regiment which further amalgamated, on 1 February 2007, with the Devonshire and Dorset Regiment, the Royal Green Jackets and The Light Infantry to form The Rifles.

The Regiment raised a total of 16 battalions during the First World War; it was awarded 55 battle honours and two Victoria Crosses, losing 7,140 men during the course of the war.

A Group Photograph

Before, Now and In-Between
A History & Art Project by Andrew Tatham

A Group Photograph Webpage

Andrew Tatham had in his possession a copy of the above group photograph of the officers of the 8th Battalion Royal Berkshire Regiment, taken at their training camp on Salisbury Plain in 1915 before they embarked for France. Andrew's great-grandfather, William Walton, was their commanding officer. Over a course of 21 years of research Andrew contacted the relatives of all 46 men in the photograph, researching their family trees and descendants. The book is a wonderful tribute to these men, beautifully illustrated and presented.

An exhibition was presented at 'In Flanders Fields Museum', in Ypres, Belgium, from 26th September 2015 to 3rd January 2016. There are a number of images etc. available on the webpage. The book can also be ordered direct from Andrew.

The family trees of the men featured in the book are gradually being added to GENi with Andrew Tatham's blessing. They are -
