History of 93rd Sutherland Highlanders
The Sutherland Highlanders were raised three times before they were formally known as the Sutherland Highlanders. They were originally raised as the 1st Sutherland Fencibles in Scotland in 1759. After the disbanding on the 1st by Lord Reay in 1763 the 2nd Sutherland Fencibles were formed in 1779 by Elizabeth, Countess of Sutherland. Finally, in 1793 the 3rd Sutherland Fencibles were raised by Lieutenant Colonel William Wemyss. They were finally disbanded in 1799 at Fort George.
***
Upon its disbandment the 93rd Regiment of Foot were enlisted on behalf of Elizabeth, Countess of Sutherland. When the 93rd were called to duty finally in August 1800 not a single one of these brave Highlanders failed to report to duty. And as such, they had sufficient man to march on, under, now Major General, William Wemyss.
The first major conflict of the 93rd was on 28 December 1814. As the British advanced on New Orleans the 93rd Highlanders came under direct fire. They remained in deep cover, under constant rain and in dire situation for 5 hours until the British finally retreated. The final assault of the British occurred on the 8th of January. As the battle raged on Lieutenant Colonel Dale died and when no other orders were send to advance or withdraw the 93rd stood firm. They held their ground while being completely overrun, until finally orders came to withdraw.
The 93rd were commemorated for their immense bravery and it was noted that: “To the very edge of the canal before the rampart the few that were left of the kilted regiment marched, then halted there. The men who had been detailed to bring scaling ladders and fascines had failed to come up. Unable to go forward, too proud to retreat, although the regiment behind them had all fallen back. At length a mere handful of what had been the magnificent regiment slowly retired, still in unbroken order, still turning to face the foe. From the ramparts the Americans cheered them wildly. All rifle fire ceased.” – The Thin Red Line, Regimental Journal, January 1968
Like most British regiments, the 93rd Highlanders developed its own traditions and character, some of which survived amalgamations. The 93rd Highlanders were reputed to be the most religious regiment in the British Army, outdoing even the Cameronians who were originally formed from religious zealots. The regiment formed its own parish, with ministers and elders chosen from the ranks by the ranks. Two sergeants, two corporals, and two privates would be elected to serve as elders. The regiment was also said to be the only regiment with its own regular communion plate.
There was also a long tradition of familial service within the regiment. The regiment recruited heavily from Sutherland and Caithness. Prior to amalgamation, there were no more than a dozen family names in the ranks as opposed to the 91st Highlanders who had 323 Irishmen and 501 Englishmen in its ranks.
Early in the regiment's history, it was common to see the regiment parade with a pet deer. The first deer was the pet for Sergeant Samuel Macdonald.
