Kincaid Mackenzie

Alexander Kincaid Mackenzie (1768–1830) was a 19th-century Scottish merchant who served as Lord Provost of Edinburgh from 1817 to 1819.

[1] It is thought his father died young as his mother "Mrs Mackenzie" is noted as a merchant trading from the Luckenbooths, next to St Giles Cathedral in 1773.

[7] In 1818, during his period as Lord Provost, a similar accusation caused him to publish the council's finances in full.

[11] He died during dinner at his home, 5 Gayfield Square[12] at the top of Leith Walk on 2 June 1830 aged 62.

[13] He is buried on the central western terrace of New Calton Burial Ground in Edinburgh, facing south to Arthur's Seat, next to the grave of Sir Robert Christison.
