  • The 39th (Dorsetshire) Regiment of Foot was an infantry regiment of the British Army, formed in 1719 and amalgamated into The Dorsetshire Regiment in 1881. The regiment was raised by Colonel Richard Coote in Ireland in August 1702. This was in fact a reforming of Richard Coote's Regiment of Foot, which he had in turn inherited in 1692 from Viscount Lisburne's Regiment of Foot which was originally formed in 1689. In 1751, they were numbered the 39th Regiment of Foot, and in 1782 took a county title as the 39th (East Middlesex) Regiment of Foot. In 1794 the regiment was captured, and reformed in Ireland the following year by absorbing the short-lived 104th Regiment of Foot (Royal Manchester Volunteers). In 1805 a number of regiments had their territorial affiliations shuffled, with the East Middlesex title passing to the 77th Foot and the 39th taking the Dorsetshire title previously held by the 35th (Sussex) Regiment of Foot to become the 39th (Dorsetshire) Regiment of Foot. The 39th arrived in the British colony of New South Wales toward the end of 1825. The regiment saw service in Hobart, Sydney, Swan River colony and Bathurst, leaving on July 5, 1832 to see service in India.
  • O 39º Regimento de Infantaria foi um regimento do Exército Britânico formado em 1719 e fundido com o Regimento de Dorsetshire em 1881. O regimento foi criado pelo coronel Richard Coote em Agosto de 1702, na Irlanda. Foi de fato uma reforma do Regimento de Infantaria de Richard Coote, que Richard herdou do Visconde de Lisburne, com nome original de "Regimento de Infantaria do Visconde de Lisburne", formado em 1689. Em 1751, foi dado ao regimento seu número regimental, o 39º, e em 1782 recebeu o título regional de "39º de Leste Middlesex". Em 1794 o regimento foi capturado, sendo reformado na Irlanda no ano seguinte, absorvendo o 104º Regimento de Infantaria. Em 1805 alguns regimentos tiveram suas filiações territoriais trocadas, com o título de "Leste Middlesex" passando para o 77º Regimento e o de Dorsetshire passando para o 39º, mantido anteriormente pelo 35º Regimento de Infantaria (Sussex). Passou a ser então o 39º Regimento de Infantaria (Dorsetshire). O 39º chegou à colônia de Nova Gales do Sul ao final de 1825. Lá o regimento atuou em Hobart, Sydney, Colônia do Rio Cisne e Bathurst, deixando Nova Gales em 5 de Julho de 1832 para servir na Índia.
