McDonald was born in Dunbeath, Caithness, Scotland, to Annie (née Grant) and James McDonald. After a period in New South Wales, he came to Western Australia in 1892, starting a business in Fremantle. McDonald was elected to the East Fremantle Municipal Council upon its formation in 1897, and served as mayor from 1900 to 1903.[1] At the 1901 state election, he won the newly created seat of Cockburn Sound, which took in the area immediately south of Fremantle. The seat was abolished at the 1904 election,[2] and later in the year McDonald purchased a farm at Beverley (in the Wheatbelt).[1] He contested the seat of Beverley at the 1905 election, but was defeated by Edmund Smith.[2] McDonald remained in Beverley for the rest of his life, dying there in May 1938 (aged 78).[1] See also
