THE REGIMENT

Captain James Kerby's corps was active from July 1812 until March 1813, serving from Fort Erie to the emplacements at Chippawa and Queenston.  

The unit fought in many of the early engagements such as the capture of Detroit and Queenston Heights.  Later as the unit was disbanded with the advent of the Provincial Artillery Company, some "re upped" with the new company and saw action at Fort George, Chippawa, Lundy's Lane and Fort Erie.
