Notes
Raised by Ogle for service in Ireland, they returned to England in 1643 under Mynne's command. Mynne’s foot were assigned to Vavasour’s force opposing Massey at Gloucester. It’s possible that Mynne's regiments was combined into Vavasour's. The regiment appear to have been destroyed at Redmarley by Massey, though perhaps the survivors continued to serve under Vavasour.
