Aberdeen and Kincardine East consisted of "The county districts of Deer and Turriff, inclusive of all burghs situated therein." Therefore, it included the burghs of
Fraserburgh,
Peterhead,
Rosehearty and
Turriff.[1]
The
House of Commons (Redistribution of Seats) Act 1949 created new boundaries for the
1950 general election. Aberdeen and Kincardine East was merged with part of Aberdeen and Kincardine Central to form
East Aberdeenshire, which was one of four constituencies covering the county of Aberdeen and the county of city of Aberdeen. East Aberdeenshire and
West Aberdeenshire were entirely within the county of Aberdeen, and Aberdeen North and Aberdeen South were entirely within the county of city of Aberdeen.[1]
