The Jacobite rising of 1745 was an attempt by Charles Edward Stuart to regain the British throne for his father.
The Jacobite army included a large number of north-eastern and lowland Scots, along with substantial Franco-Irish and English contingents, who were drilled and organized in line with contemporary European military practices.
The Jacobite infantry was initially divided into two divisions, “Highland” and “low Country Foot”
Following British army customs they were split into regiments usually of one battalion. Each battalion had a nominal strength of 200-300 men, although actual numbers were often much smaller.
The regiments of Lochiel, Glengarry and Ogilvy also had grenadier companies, although how these were distinguished is not known.
