The Scottish Missionary Society was founded in Jamaica in 1823 when a number of estate owners asked for a ministry to be established on the island to instruct their slaves. In 1847 the Society handed over their churches to the Synod of the United Presbyterian Church, which later became the Presbyterian Church of Jamaica.
