history |
Keig and Tough Free Church was formed immediately at the Disruption and sanctioned as a charge in 1844. With some difficulty a site was obtained for a church in 1846. The congregation suffered from rural depopulation, but also from defections after the establishment of a separate charge at Alford in 1866. It passed successively to the United Free Church and the Church of Scotland, in the latter case as Keig South, which united with Keig North as Keig in 1937. The Church of Scotland charge was in the presbytery of Alford and the synod of Aberdeen. |
