Ratho Presbyterian Church History

Ratho Presbyterian Church, Ratho began with the building of a frame church in 1852 on land donated the previous year. Services were conducted by ministers in the area until the Rev. Andrew Tolmie was inducted in 1853 -- he served until 1862. A manse was built in on Lot 9, Concession 8 in Blandford Township. In 1865 a second manse (presumably replacing the first) was built just south of Ratho church -- this was destroyed by fire in 1871 and rebuilt the same year. In 1891 a third manse was built beside the church in Innerkip and the Ratho manse was sold the following year. In 1859 the name of the church was changed from The Free Church of Blandford to Blandford Presbyterian Church, then in 1860 the church was known as the Presbyterian Church of Ratho and in 1874, the Ratho Presbyterian Congregation. In 1874 the church was raised and a foundation put in, an addition was added on the west side of the church and in the next several years, the walls of the building were bricked. A full basement was put under the church in 1951. In 1861 Ratho had joined with Innerkip congregation to form a two-point charge, an arrangement which continued until the year 2000, when Ratho continued on its own.
