The Very Rev. Alexander Stewart MacInnes (31 November 1850 – 20 June 1933)[1] was an eminent Gaelic-speaking Scottish Episcopalian priest in the "Non-juring Jacobite" tradition in the first half of the 20th century.[2]

He was a native of Ballachulish, Scottish Highlands, and was educated at the University of Glasgow and Cumbrae Theological College. He was ordained deacon in 1888 and became a priest in 1891.[1]

He was Rector of St Mary, Glencoe[3] from 1889 to 1933 and Dean of Argyll and The Isles from 1930 to 1933.[4]
