Excerpt from History of Tho Farrington's Regiment Subsequently Designated the 29th (Worcestershire) Foot 1694 to 1891

The Records in possession of the Regiment appear to have been originally collected and brought down to November, 1799, by Col. Enys, who joined the 29th in 1775. In this Officer's MS. Records, which a few years ago were kindly placed at my service by Mr. F. Enys, is the following paragraph: - "The Records were completed at the desire of the 29th, in consequence of an order, dated..., desiring a Book to be kept, in which all the principal events of the Corps were to be kept in future, with as much of its former history as they could collect. Among others, I was applied to, and took great pains to ascertain the true from the false part of the Reports we had heard from various persons at various times; but when it was completed, Lieut.-Col. (now Sir Gregory) Way, who then commanded the Regiment, thought they were too full and particular, in consequence of which, the copy sent to the Regiment was curtailed very much, and I have no doubt but that they made them still shorter before they put them into the Orderly Book."

When Col. Enys joined the 29th, Captain Roberts (who we can trace as being in the regiment in 1742) had been its adjutant thirteen years, and it is most probable that the previous history was in a great measure obtained from this officer, who, in turn, had received it from his predecessors; for although somewhat meagre, still it is substantially correct, and, with one exception, I have been able to prove all the traditions and statements.
