Historique

St. David's United Church, located in Georgetown, Prince Edward Island, was originally established as a Presbyterian church in 1837 when Lieutenant Governor Charles Fitzroy granted town lots 11 and 12 to Rev. Roderick MacAulay, minister of the Presbyterian congregation. The church was built a few years later and a manse was erected at some time between 1861 and 1863 under the direction of Rev. G. M. Grant. The congregation also included the adjacent communities of Sturgeon, Alliston, Brudenell, Burnt Point, Boughton Island, Montague, Cardign and Whim Road. Rev. Grant, who also ministered to the Marshfield and Harrington charges, later became Principal of Queen's University in Kingston, Ontario.

When the United of Church of Canada was established in 1925, the congregation of St. David's chose to join the new denomination and became part of a pastoral charge which also included Sturgeon and Milltown Cross. In 1965 St. David's United Church amalgamated with the Dundas and Annandale pastoral charge to form the Central Kings Charge. The manse for the charge ws located in a new house built in 1960 adjacent to the church in Dundas. The Sturgeon congregation which had originally been of the Methodist persuasion and then part of the Georgetown United pastoral charge joined with the Montague pastoral charge.
