Ardchattan Parish Archive

About this Organisation

Ardchattan Parish Archive covers the area between Loch Etive and Creran - from Big Bang to Present Day.

Physically it is a collection of records, images, maps, books, memories, hosted at Kintaline Farm, Benderloch. These are being sorted into a catalogue for people to access and to conduct research. The items in the archive have been collected from many sources over the past decades, with new ones added all the time. There is much yet remaining in the community: as family records, folk and family lore, and as structures raised over the millenia, as well as the massive amount of records in the national archives.

We now have an online wiki (http://ardchattan.wikidot.com [1]) that is being populated with information about the parish. This is a collaborative project with contributions from local people, and far away descendants. Facebook is a valuable tool to connect with each other, locally and internationally https://www.facebook.com/groups/ArdchattanParishArchive/ [2].
