There followed several reorganisations although the Essex Yeomanry as we know it was formed as a Territorial Unit in 1901, initially called the Essex Imperial Yeomanry but in 1908 simply called the Essex Yeomanry.
In 1921 the role of cavalry was gone and Essex Yeomanry became part of the Royal Horse Artillery . In 1969 a further reorganisation saw the Essex Yeomanry become a signal squadron while further reorganisations have seen the role reduced to that of a troop within the Territorial Signals Regiment
