Gigha and Cara kirk session
A church court that sat within the presbytery of Kintyre and the synod of Argyll. During the sixteenth century the parish of Gigha and Cara was united to that of Jura, but in 1641 it was severed from Jura and instead united to the parish of Saddell. Gigha and Cara remained as part of Saddell until 1659 when it was disjoined and united to Killean. In 1726 Gigha and Cara was disjoined for a third time, but on this occasion it was erected as a separate parish.
