Donald Campbell (bishop)

Donald Alphonsus Campbell (8 December 1894 – 22 July 1963) was a Scottish prelate who served as the Roman Catholic Archbishop of Glasgow from 1945 to 1963.

Born in Bohuntine, Glen Roy, Inverness-shire on 8 December 1894, he was educated at the local school and entered Blairs College in 1908 to train for the priesthood.

From there he went to St Mary's Cathedral, Aberdeen, and later to the Diocese of Argyll and the Isles, where he served as assistant at Rothesay and Roybridge before being appointed parish priest at Castlebay on Barra, and later at Daliburgh on South Uist.

The principal consecrator was Archbishop Andrew Thomas McDonald of Saint Andrews and Edinburgh, and the principal co-consecrators were Bishop George Henry Bennett of Aberdeen and Bishop William Henry Mellon of Galloway.

His body was returned to Scotland, lying in state in St Andrew's Cathedral where an estimated 14,000 people filed past the coffin to pay their respects.
