Thanks gents. Coat colour? I went with the Peachey and Prince deduction that the DoYs were one of the four regiments returned from Ireland wearing white coats who were present at the Aldbourne Chase muster (we pretty much know the coat colours of the other regiments present bar 4). They were issued with winter clothing in September 1644 but no colours are recorded for any of the clothing issued to the 22 regiments who benefitted. |

Your research is better than mine and I am convinced. Thanks! |

is a big fan of the Age of Sail, and these ships really speak to him - he loves transitional eras, and the Anglo-Dutch Wars was one of those.
