[note]
See opposite page. [page 38]
The lands of Carmyllie at an early period were the property of the Abbey of Aber-
brothock but were not erected into a parochial charge till after the Reformation. Previous
to that time there was a chapel where the church now stands dedicated to the Virgin
Mary and mentioned in some old records as "Our Lady's Chapel of Carmylie"
where the monks from the Abbey of Aberbrothock performed divine
Service.
In 1609 an act of Parliament was passed which had been preceded it would appear
by decrees of the Church Courts ratifying and approving the erection of the Kirk of Carmyllie
into a parochial Charge and ordaining "the territory to be designed by the presbytery
to repair thereto in all time coming"
