North Devon Militia
The North Devon Militia was a regiment of militia formed from men resident in the north part of the county of Devon, England. It was disbanded in 1853 when it became the Devon Artillery.〔Walrond, p.423〕
==History==
One of the Ordinances and Acts of the Parliament of England, 1642–60 was the ''Ordinance to settle the Militia of Devon'' (7 June 1648). According to "Herber": "The Militia Act of 1757 established militia regiments for each county and required each parish to provide a number of able-bodied men, aged between 18 and 50 (reduced to 45 in 1762) for military training...Miltia regiments served in Britain or Ireland but not overseas. Men had to serve for three years (for five years after 1786). In peacetime the men spent just a few weeks at a military camp... During the French wars of 1793-1815, some other auxiliary troops, known as yeomanry (which were cavalry), volunteers or fencible infantry or cavalry were raised in each county".〔http://genuki.cs.ncl.ac.uk/DEV/DevonMisc/MilitiaLists/〕 From 1759-63 it was stationed in Cornwall to assist Revenue Officers in the suppression of smuggling.〔 Detachments were stationed at Mevagissey, Padstow and many other places. In 1853 the records of the disbanded regiment were destroyed,〔Walrond, pp.333,423〕 thus few records survive from which its history could be written.
