Biography

[edit | edit source]

Macleod was the Member of Parliament (MP) for Cromartyshire from 1818 to 1820, and for Sutherland from 14 September 1831 until 1837,[2] when he stood down from the House of Commons at the 1837 general election,[3] and ran for the constituency of Inverness Burghs which he represented from 1837 – 21 February 1840.[2]

Macleod was Lord Lieutenant of Cromarty from 1833 until he died.[2] His father lived to be an old age so Macleod did not become head of the family until he was in his late 50s. He died nine years later in March 1853 and was succeeded by his eldest son, Robert Bruce Aeneas (1818–88).[2]

Family

They had five children: their eldest son was Robert Bruce Aeneas (1818-1888),[2] their younger son was Henry Dunning Macleod (1821-1902), who became a distinguished writer on political economy, and three daughters:[4] Margaret, Elizabeth, and Anna Maria.[5]
