Cahoots!  Yup apparently they were in cahoots!  The archivist who responded to me noted that 'only selected officers and regiments to whom payments were made' are listed in the paymasters book.  I fear that my search has hit a dead end.

Ex-king James was certainly in cahoots with the French Government.   

If there were Frenchmen on King William's side,   they weren't there from the French government.   Maybe they were protestant refugees from France,  or something like that.  I don't know.

This is perfect - thanks - it lets me know that originally the English Government retained these English, Scots and Irish troops in Holland - then renamed them The Dutch Guards!
