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