Andrew Beveridge Doig (18 September 1914 – 21 December 1997) was a Scottish minister and African missionary of the Church of Scotland who served as Moderator of the General Assembly in 1981/2.
[1][2] He was born in Carluke on 18 September 1914 the son of George Doig, a railway clerk, originally from Kirriemuir, and his wife Hannah Andrew Beveridge.
Under the influence of his mother and the evangelist, D. P. Thomson, he was ordained as a Church of Scotland missionary in 1938, and sought to spread Christianity in Africa.
Although originally seeing Banda as a good influence he ultimately ended in opposition to him when he was famously a Church of Scotland envoy asking for clemency at the trial of Orton Chirwa.
His most unusual duty during his term of office was to represent the Church of Scotland at the marriage of Prince Charles and Lady Diana.
