18 Parish of St. Monans
[St. Monans (parish) Description continued]
Back as 1174. In 1646 the lands of Newark constituting the barony of St. Monance were disjoined from Kilconquhar and annexed Quoad Sacra to Abernethie. The parish thus enlarged received the designation of Abercrombie with St Monance. In the course of years and with the decline of the village of Abercrombie and rise of that of St. Monance the old title disappeared altogether and the parish came to be known by that of St. Monance as it is still pretty generally designated although the old title of Abercrombie has been revived for the last thirty years at the wish of the principal heritor.
