100th (Prince of Wales's Royal Canadian) Regiment of Foot
Under the Childers Reforms it amalgamated with the 109th Regiment of Foot (Bombay Infantry) to form the Prince of Wales's Leinster Regiment (Royal Canadians) in 1881.The regiment, which was named after Prince Albert Edward, future King Edward VII, was raised in the Province of Canada to create extra military resources following the Indian Rebellion in June 1858.[3] In 1875 it was declared the successor to the 100th Regiment of Foot (Prince Regent's County of Dublin Regiment), which had served in Canada, and allowed to use the battle honour "Niagara".[2] As part of the Cardwell Reforms of the 1870s, where single-battalion regiments were linked together to share a single depot and recruiting district in the United Kingdom, the 100th was linked with the 109th Regiment of Foot (Bombay Infantry), and assigned to district no.This article about a specific British military unit is a stub.
