Reference: From the 41st Regiment Military Living Group
The original name of the Regiment was “Colonel Edmund Fielding’s Regiment of Invalids”, raised in 1719 from out-pensioners of the Royal Hospital Chelsea, for garrison duty “at home”.
On July 1, 1751, the Regiment was numbered 41st and redesignated as The 41st Regiment of Foot (or Invalids), with service confined mainly to the Portsmouth garrison, with detachments at Plymouth and Jersey.
On December 11 1787, the invalids character of the Regiment was abandoned, the outpensioners discharged and recategorised as a marching regiment of the line- younger men were recruited in preparation for active service “at home or abroad” the new name was The 41st Regiment of Foot.
By request of the Commanding Officer, Lieutenant Colonel Sir Edmund Keynton Williams KCB KTS, the King by letter dated 25 February 1831 approved the regiment be styled The 41st or The Welsh Regiment of Infantry.
