Scope and Content
Administrative / Biographical History
The Rev James Gerard Young DD (1821-99) was minister of the Parish of Monifieth from 1855-1899. The Gerard Trust resulted from provision made in his will for the establishment of a cottage hospital in Monifieth. The Gerard Cottage Hospital opened in October 1905 and operated under the management of a trust until July 1948 when its running was transferred to the Eastern Regional Hospital Board. The records deal particularly with the establishment and administration of the Gerard Cottage Hospital, Monifieth. The Hospital was closed in 1969 and the building was altered and extended to become St. Mary's residential home for the elderly, run by the Sisters of that Order and owned by the Diocese of Dunkeld.
