Notes
The Corps van Pandoeren was formed by the Dutch administration of the Cape Colony in 1793. It changed its name to the Cape Regiment in 1795 when it came under control of the British. From 1803-06 when the Colony came under Dutch control the Regiment's name changed again to the Corps van Vrye Hottentotten and later the Hottentot Ligte Infanterie. In 1806, when the British took control again the Regiment was renamed the Cape Regiment and had its headquarters in Simonstown. It was divided and renamed for the final time in 1817.
