PnM070 “Henry Tillier’s Regt. Of Foote Drummer”
Henry Tillier was of a French Huguemont family and an officer in Charles I’s army when it fought in Ireland in 1642. In 1643 he was promoted Colonel and raised his own regiment from the Dublin garrison which crossed over to
England in 1644 on the King’s side. Their green coats marked them out as proud Irishmen ... as is our drummer.
