1st Battalion 2nd Battalion The Duke of Cumberland's Regiment, also known as Montagu's Corps, South Carolina Rangers, and the Loyal American Rangers, was a British Loyalist provincial unit raised from American colonists and rebel prisoners by the former British Royal Governor of the Province of South Carolina, Lord Charles Montagu as well as in the colony of the Province of New York.

[1][2] Lord Montagu raised 5 companies of 100 men each in Charleston and Camden, South Carolina as well as African slaves for service in Jamaica or elsewhere.

[4] In August 1781, the regiment sailed for Jamaica and spent the war there.

The Duke of Cumberland's Regiment was disbanded in Jamaica on 24 October 1783.
