Early life and ordained ministryBorn into a manufacturing Dundee family,[2] the son of Robert Bogle Don and Lucy Flora Campbell, he was educated at Rugby and Magdalen College, Oxford. Deciding the family business was not for him,[3] studied for ordination at Cuddesdon College before becoming a curate in Redcar followed by an incumbency in Yorkshire. There then followed a 10-year period as provost of the cathedral in his native city. In 1927 he commissioned Dundee architect Patrick Thoms to design his house.[4] From 1931 until 1941 he was secretary to Cosmo Gordon Lang and became a chaplain to King George V.[5] Already the speaker’s chaplain[6] in 1941 he became a canon of Westminster Abbey as rector of St. Margaret's, Westminster, commonly called "the parish church of the House of Commons".[7] His brother was Air Vice Marshal Francis Don.[8] Dean of WestminsterThis was followed in 1946 [9] by elevation to the post of Dean of Westminster,[10] a post he was to hold for 13 years, a period which included the Queen's Coronation [11] One other event in his time as Dean was the theft of the Stone of Scone just prior to the Coronation. As a Scot, Don felt this theft acutely and was important to the return of the Coronation Stone to Westminster.[12] RetirementHe retired to Canterbury where, although he was married,[13] he and his wife met only once a week for lunch.[14] He died on 3 May 1966.[15] References1. ^London, SPCK 1929 {{Deans of Westminster}}{{Authority control}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Don, Alan Campbell}}2. ^The Times, Wednesday, 4 May 1966; p. 14; Issue 56622; col F Dr. Alan Don Former Dean Of Westminster 3. ^"Who was Who" 1897-1990 London, A & C Black, 1991 {{ISBN|0-7136-3457-X}} 4. ^http://www.scottisharchitects.org.uk/architect_full.php?id=200230 5. ^The Times, Saturday, 27 October 1934; p. 15; Issue 46896; col E Chaplain to the King-new appointments 6. ^The Times, Friday, 21 February 1936; p. 14; Issue 47304; col G Speaker's Chaplain 7. ^Westminster Abbey: St. Margaret's Church, accessed 25 April 2016 8. ^http://www.westminster-abbey.org/our-history/people/alan-campbell-don 9. ^The Times, Thursday, 16 May 1946; pg. 4; Issue 50453; col F The Deanery Of Westminster Canon A.
