The 94th Foot of 1779-83 was  an English regiment, the place of formation being Colchester, Essex. It went out to Jamaica with other reinforcements when the island was in danger of invasion in 1780 and was brought home and disbanded in 1783.
 

95th Regiment of Foot
The 95th Foot of 1760-3 served in America in 1760-61. It was disbanded at the peace of 1763. The 95th Foot of 1816-18 was a originally a second battalion of the 52nd Foot. In 1803 it was formed into a separate regiment as the 96th Foot and served in the West Indies, Bermuda, and North America for many years. It was disbanded in 1818.

Note: The Rifle Brigade  was formed late in the history of the British Army, in 1800 as "The Rifle Corps" using men selected from fourteen line infantry regiments who had particular musketry or tactical skills. In 1802, the corps was called into the line as the 95th (Rifles) Regiment As such it served throughout the Peninsula campaigns. It raised a second battalion in at Canterbury in 1805 and a third battalion in 1809. In recognition of its brilliant service throughout the Napoleonic Wars, it was taken out of the line after Waterloo as an independent corps styled The Rifle Brigade and organised after 1819 as a two battalion corps. That organisation continued until the Crimean War when two more battalions were raised. The newly formed 4th Battalion, raised at Winchester in 1857, embarked for Canada in 1861 and served in Canada until 1872.

96th Regiment of Foot
The 96th (Queen's Royal Irish Regiment) Foot raised in Ireland in 1793, fought in the West Indies in the early part of the French Revolutionary War, and was broken up at Halifax, Nova Scotia, in 1795, when its remains were drafted into he King's Own and the Royal Fusiliers.  A second regiment was re-numbered as the 95th and then disbanded in 1818. The last corps known as the 96th, was raised by general recruiting in 1824, and embarked for New Brunswick soon after. It served in North America until 1831 when it came home. The regiment was at Gibraltar for some mouths in 1857, and at the time of the "Trent" difficulty a wing was dispatched from home to Canada, but its services not being required, it was brought back again.

97th Regiments of Foot
Formed in 1798 as the Minorca Regiment, designated as the 97th  (Queen's Own Germans) in 1805. Served in Bermuda, the West Indies, and America, including the expedition to Plattsburg in 1814. It was re-numbered as the 96th in 1816 and disbanded in 1818.

Formed in 1824,  the new 97th (The Earl of Ulster's) went abroad in 1841, and served in Gibraltar, in the Ionian Islands, Jamaica, and in North America until 1853, when it came home. In 1873 the 97th went to Jamaica, and served in that island, in the West Indies, Nova Scotia, and Bermuda, until 1880, when it was removed from Nova Scotia to Gibraltar.

98th Regiment of Foot
The 98th Foot of 1805-15 was raised in 1805 and served some years in Bermuda and New Brunswick. It was renumbered as the 97th in 1815 and disbanded in 1818. It served in the Atlantic region of Canada from 1814 to approximately 1818.

100th  Regiments of Foot
There have been four regiments numbered "100" in the British Army's infantry of the line over the centuries; two have served in Canada:

The third 100th Regiment (Prince Regent's County of Dublin Regiment) was raised in 1804 and sent in October 1805 to garrison Canada. Half the regiment was drowned in a shipwreck off Newfoundland. The remainder served out the war in Canada, fighting the Americans in the northern campaign of the War of 1812. The regiment was renumbered as the 99th in 1816 and disbanded in 1818.

The fourth regiment was the 100th Regiment  (Prince of Wales Royal Canadians),  a British infantry regiment raised in 1857 by officers of the Canadian Volunteers to serve in India in dealing with the Indian Mutiny. The regiment was recruited in Canada in early 1858 and shipped to Shornecliffe Camp in England later that year. The battalion remained in England until 1863 when it proceeded on a tour of duty in Gibraltar and Malta until 1869, when it returned to England. In 1877 it proceeded to Bengal, remaining in India until 1895 when it returned home.  In 1898 the 1st Battalion was dispatched to Halifax, Nova Scotia.  The new regiment twenty years later came full circle, becoming "Irish" -- and was disbanded in 1922 when Ireland became independent.

101st (Royal Bengal Fusiliers) Regiment of Foot
The 101st (Duke of York’s Irish) Regiment was raised in 1806. It served in the West Indies and on the Canadian frontier during the campaigns of 1813-14. It was disbanded at Haslar 17th January, 1817. A later 101st proceeded to Nova Scotia in 1876. It served in Nova Scotia and Bermuda until 1883, when it returned home.

102nd Regiment of Foot
The 102nd of 1809 served under the command of General Sir Charles Napier in Guernsey, Bermuda, and North America (in Atlantic region from 1814), including the affairs at Craney’s Island and elsewhere during the American War of 1814.

103rd Regiment of Foot
In 1809 a 103rd served on the Canadian frontier during the war of 1813-14, having arrived in 1812.

104th Regiment of Foot
The King's New Brunswick Regiment of Foot was raised as a provincial corps in 1793 and was elevated to a fencible corps in 1799. Many of its members were Loyalists or sons of Loyalists. It provided the garrison for New Brunswick when the regular line regiment was withdrawn for service in the war with France. This regiment was disbanded in 1802 after the Treaty of Amiens was signed with France. The New Brunswick Fencible Infantry was raised in 1803 when the war with France was renewed. This Regiment was elevated to line status as the 104th Regiment of Foot in 1810. It made a winter march to Canada during February and March 1813. While there, it was employed at Sackett's Harbour, Beaver Dams, the blockade of Fort George, the Battle of Lundy's Lane and the assault on Fort Erie. The Regiment was disbanded at Montreal on the 24th May, 1817. Many members of the Regiment received grants of land along the Upper Saint John River. The New Brunswick Fencibles was raised in 1813 to replace the 104th for service in New Brunswick. This unit was disbanded in 1816.

The PCORB served in Canada in the 1840's and again (both 1st & 4th Battalions) from 1861-1870 as part of the response to first the Trent difficulties and then the Fenian problems, and also to train the Canadian Militia for the aftermath of Confederation. They also formed the Governor General's and the Government's Honour Guard at the proclamation of the Dominion of Canada, 1 July 1867, as they were the regular troops assigned to the Ottawa garrison at that time.

Re-Numbering and disbandment
When the Rifle Brigade was taken out of the numbered line in 1816 it vacated the number 95, and all the regiments above it slipped down one digit to fill the gap. Thus the 100th became the 99th, but all those regiments (95th-104th) were disbanded in 1817-1818 since they were excess to Britain's imperial requirements and post-Napoleonic occupation duties.
