Lineup and significant changes
- October 4, 1692: Establishment of the "Régiment d'Agénois" under the name of this province . It was therefore a regiment of the crown, the regiment owner was the king himself.
- February 18, 1749: dissolution. The grenadiers were incorporated into the Régiment des Grenadiers de France and the rest into the Régiment de Berry .
Regimental flags
The regiment carried a white body flag and two orderly flags. There are different details for the latter. There are two pictorial representations and for the third an imprecise description from 1739 (jaunes & gris de lin façonnez dans les 4 quarrez, & croix blanches) . It was quite possible and not uncommon for the flags to be exchanged when the commanders changed.
