Alloa Auld Licht Burgher kirk session

A secession church court. It began as a congregation of the Associate Presbytery about 1800, when the Burghers split into Auld Licht and New Licht causes. The congregation was Auld Licht and split from New Licht congregation (of what was to become Alloa West United Presbyterian) church. The Auld Licht congregation joined with the Church of Scotland in 1839 as Alloa East, but became a Free Church parish in 1843. In 1900 it became Melville United Free Church and in 1909 it united with Chalmers United Free Church.
