history |
The church of Kilmallie, which was known of old as Kilmalin, was dedicated to St. Mailin of Teach Malin in Carlow. Ministry of the session is recorded from 1651 in the person of Dugald Campbell. Between the year of the reformation in 1560 and 1651 the church had sustained a vacancy. The old church was rebuilt in 1783. In 1931, following the union of the Church of Scotland and the United Free Church in 1929, Kilmallie Parish Church was joined with the former Kilmallie section of the United Free Church congregation of Kilmallie and Kilmonivaig. After the union the old parish church remained in use as the place of worship and the former United Free Church was converted for use as a church hall. Glengarry established a link with Kilmallie in 1968 however this arrangement was terminated in 1974. The Kirk Session of Kilmallie, which once again is sitting as a vacancy, falls within the jurisdiction of the Presbytery of Lochaber. |
