Andy,
I hope this helps a little. I'm still collating more on the uniforms myself as well as flags.
All wore red coats with the following facings;
Infantry
Forfar's - Buff facings, waistcoat & breeches, white hat lace and gaitors. Drummers reverse colours with red waistcoat and breeches and white lace.
Wightman's - Greyish white
Shannon's - Yellow
Morrison's - Bright yellow
Montagu's - Yellow but I also have it listed as Tawny
Clayton's - Yellow
Orrery's - Blue
Egerton's - White
Cavalry
Portmore's - Blue
Evan's - Light Green
Kerr's - White
Carpenter's - Blue
Stair's - Yellow
Gentlemen Volunteers - Everyday clothing, various colours
Remember, by this time they were all wearing the black cockade in their hats.
