Administrative history
Carnduff Pastoral Charge was formed as a new United Charge in 1925, part of Estevan Presbytery, with preaching points at Carnduff (St. Andrew's) and Wheatlands. Eventually, the charge joined with Carievale and, by 1958, it had been re-named Carnduff-Carievale Pastoral Charge. As of 1962, the charge consisted of Carnduff, Carievale, Bethel and Wheatland. Around 1965, Alida joined the charge and Carievale left (it would join Gainsborough, Bethel and Winlaw, ca.1966, to form Gainsborough-Carievale Pastoral Charge). By the 1970s, the charge had been re-named Carnduff-Alida. Alida eventually closed, December 31, 2003.

Arrangement
Original order for many of these records is unclear. Items under A.381.XV.A and A.381.XV.B were arranged and listed as local church records sometime before 1990, with further batches (under XV.SA, XV.SC and XV.SR) added around 1996, 1998, ca.2005 and 2013. The fonds was created in 2023, based on historical relationships between the charges, records previously listed and any new accruals.
