The great bravery of the 42nd Regiment of Foot 42nd Highlanders then the 43rd and the admirable service which they rendered at the Battle of Fontenoy in 1745, made the Government anxious to avail themselves still further of the military qualities of the Highlanders. Authority, therefore, was given to John Campbell, 4th Earl of Loudoun to raise another Highland regiment under the patronage of the noblemen, chiefs, and gentlemen of that part of the kingdom, whose sons and connections would be appointed officers. The regiment was raised at Inverness and Perth in August 1745. The regiment fought at the Battle of Prestonpans in 1745 where they were defeated and many were taken prisoner but later released.
