history |
Stitchill (or Stitchel) Associate Session (Burgher) Church originated with a petition to the Associate Presbytery in 1737 after a local patronage dispute. It passed to the United Presbyterian and United Free Churches, in the latter case as Stitchel, and to the Church of Scotland as Stichill Cairns Memorial, which united with Stichill and Hume in 1938. Stichill and Hume united with Nenthorn in 1950. Stitchill, Hume and Nenthorn, as it now is, is in the presbytery of Jedburgh (formerly Jedburgh and Kelso) and was in the synod of Merse and Teviotdale until the abolition of synods in 1993. |
