The Church at Climpy was united with Forth Church.
St Paul’s Church Wilsontown was built in 1870 with funds being provided by the people of Wilsontown, Forth and district. The Manse was built beside the church by Mr Gavin Paul whose daughter was married to the minister Rev. John Bain.
Haywood Church was linked to St. Paul’s Church Wilsontown.
Braehead Church was a United Free Church and was united with Forth (wee kirk) and Wilsontown in 1919.
On 7th November 1974 the Churches of Forth and Wilsontown were joined and the united congregation was called: Forth St. Paul’s Parish Church.
