61st (South Gloucestershire) Regiment of Foot
The 61st (South Gloucestershire) Regiment of Foot was an infantry regiment of the British Army, created in 1758 and amalgamated into The Gloucestershire Regiment in 1881.
==Formation==
With the outbreak of the Seven Years' War, a decision was made to increase the size of the British Army. During the winter of 1756/57 a number of existing regiments formed second battalions. The 3rd Regiment of Foot formed a second battalion on 10 December 1756. In September 1757 both battalions of the 3rd Foot took part in an assault of the French coast. They returned to England in October, and on 21 April 1758 the 2nd Battalion became the 61st Regiment of Foot, with Major General Granville Elliott as colonel. The new regiment retained the buff facings of the 3rd Foot.〔Cannon (1844) p.9〕
