Ormonde Papers[edit]

This edit is a comment and so I have moved it from the article to the talk page --PBS (talk) 13:10, 27 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Ormonde Papers: Year date checked with Chelsea Army Museum Curator.

Thomas Wentworth to Edward Broughton. Breda, June 24, 1649. "You are to receive such men as shall be delivered you on shipboard as part of a Regiment to the Kings Guards, and you to command them as Sergeant Major to the said Regiment, and at your landing in Ireland you are to obey such orders and directions as you shall receive from the Marquis of Ormonde, the Lieutenant General of the Kingdom of Ireland. For Major Edward Broughton, Major in the Kings Guard of Foot "

This is quite possible as Wentworth as a Civil Servant could have issued the instructions acting on His Masters orders, or the king could have been temporarily in Breda where his permanent Court was then situate. [ See quotes above ]. Battle of Worcester where Charles II was defeated was Sept 1651

I understand that this regiment may have been the most senior portion absorbed into Russell's? Regiment and then the Ist Grenadier Guards.

If this proves to be true the 1st Grenadier Guards ARE possibly the 2nd regiment of Irish Guards raised. But in any case were there remnants of the first Irish Guards Regiment absorbed in a Second Regiment of Irish Guards. Come along now the Establishment, lets have some research free of propaganda and the compromise imposed by your predecessors at the restoration of 28 May 1660! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.10.8.33 (talkcontribs) 16:20, 8 September 2008
