Alexander Morrice Mackay, Lord Mackay LLD, was a twentieth century Scottish lawyer and Senator of the College of Justice. He was born at 8 Albert Street in Aberdeen. He was the son of Robert Whyte Mackay of Anderson & Thomson, who ran warehouses at 23-25 Broad Street in Aberdeen.
Alexander M. Mackay studied law at Trinity College, Cambridge. In 1910 he was listed as an advocate living at 26 India Street in Edinburgh’s Second New Town. In March 1926 he stood unsuccessfully as the Unionist candidate in the 1926 by-election for Bothwell.
In May 1928 he took his seat as a Senator of the College of Justice, replacing John Wilson, Lord Ashmore. In 1931 he sat on the Royal Commission on Licensing, looking at alcohol and public house reforms. He was married to Alice Margaret Ledingham (1883-1937).
Mackay died in Edinburgh in 1955 aged 80. He is buried in Dean Cemetery in the west of the city. The grave lies in the first northern extension, in the north-east section.
