The new regiment had companies at Danville, Melbourne, Richmond, Brompton and Durham.
[1] On 10 May 1867, the regiment was redesignated as the 54th Richmond Battalion of Infantry.
[1] On 1 August 1903, the 54th Richmond Regiment was converted from infantry to cavalry and redesignated as the 11th Hussars.
[1][3] With the outbreak of the First World War, the 11th Hussars along with the 7th Hussars provided volunteers help raise the 5th Canadian Mounted Rifles for service with the Canadian Expeditionary Force.
However, at the same time as the 1936 amalgamation, the perpetuation of the 5th Canadian Mounted Rifles Battalion, CEF, was transferred from the Eastern Townships Mounted Rifles to the 7th/11th Hussars, which thus acquired several battle honours through the perpetuation.
