The regiment served during the War of Jenkins' Ear and fought at the Battle of Cartagena. HistoryThe 4th Regiment of Marines was raised on 17 November 1739 as John Wynyard's Regiment of Marines.[1] Following the 18th century tradition of naming British regiments for their colonel, the regiment was renamed as Byng's Regiment of Marines in 1742.[1] The regiment embarked from Portsmouth on 4 November 1740 en route for the West Indies for service in the War of Jenkins' Ear.[1] It fought at the Battle of Cartagena de Indias in March 1741.[2] The regiment was ranked as the 47th regiment of the line in 1747 and was also known as the 4th Marines.[1] The regiment was disbanded on 8 November 1748 when the British Army disbanded its marine regiments.[1] The final commander of the 4th Marines was Colonel James Long.[3] References1. ^1 2 3 4 {{cite web|url=http://www.regiments.org/regiments/uk/inf/047-739m.htm|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20060113080227/http://www.regiments.org/regiments/uk/inf/047-739m.htm|dead-url=yes|archive-date=13 January 2006|title=4th Regiment of Marines|publisher=regiments.org|accessdate=5 February 2017}} {{Regiments of Foot}}{{Use dmy dates|date=June 2017}}2. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.regiments.org/wars/18thcent/39jenkin.htm|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20060110085454/http://www.regiments.org/wars/18thcent/39jenkin.htm|dead-url=yes|archive-date=10 January 2006|title=War of Jenkins' Ear 1739-1743|publisher=regiments.org|accessdate=5 February 2017}} 3. ^{{cite web|url=http://44thregiment.itgo.com/history.html|title=The Essex Regiment (1st Battalion)|first=J.W.|last= Burrows|publisher=44th Regiment|accessdate=4 February 2017}} 6 : Infantry regiments of the British Army|Disbanded marine forces|Military units and formations established in 1739|Military units and formations disestablished in 1748|1739 establishments in Great Britain|Marine regiments |
