Kenneth Mackenzie (10 June 1863 – 20 April 1945) was an Anglican bishop in the mid 20th century. Born in Edinburgh, Scotland, the son of Lord Mackenzie, he was educated at Loretto School and Keble College, Oxford[1] and ordained after a period of study at Ripon College Cuddesdon in 1891.[2]
His ecclesiastical career began as a curate at St Mary Redcliffe, Bristol, England, after which he began a 12-year stint at St Paul's Cathedral, Dundee: being successively curate, rector and its first provost when it achieved cathedral status in 1905.[3]
In 1907 he was elevated to the episcopate as Bishop of Argyll and The Isles, a post he held until 1942.[4]
In 1897 he married Alice White (1865–1944), daughter of James Farquhar White of Balruddery, Perthshire. They had two sons and four daughters, including Canon Kenneth Nigel Mackenzie (1901–1964).
