Prussian Infantry regiments were not actually
Prussian Infantry regiments were not actually numbered during this period but generally went by the name
of their ‘owner’ or Colonel. The list given below gives the regiments in the order in which they appeared in
the 1806 army list along with the name of their owner in 1756. As time and further information allow, I will
add names and dates of other names used for the same regiment.
These numbers are those used on the flag sheets to identify each regiment.
In the mean time you might find further information of the excellent 7 Years War Project website at
