The Eastern Association of counties was a Parliamentarian or 'Roundhead' army during the English Civil War. It was formed from a number of pro-Parliamentary militias in the east of England in 1642, including a troop of cavalry led by Oliver Cromwell. It was initially led by Edward Montagu, 2nd Earl of Manchester, one of Parliament's Major-Generals, after the dismissal of Lord Grey Of Warke.
