Although Scottish Presbyterians began a massive migration in 1605, they did not arrive in Grenada until 1830 when St. Andrew's Presbyterian (also known as Scots’ Kirk) in St. George’s was built. Many of the Presbyterian settlers to Grenada, usually Plantation settlers, came also from England, Ireland and from Wales. By 1880 their progress grew in both Belair and St. Patrick’s and by 1883, Reverend James Muir from Scotland, arrived in Grenada and began assisting some twelve hundred Indians on the Island. | Although Scottish Presbyterians began a massive migration in 1605, they did not arrive in Grenada until 1830 when St. Andrew's Presbyterian (also known as Scots’ Kirk) in St. George’s was built.
