Ramsay MacDonald was born on 12 October 1866 in Lossiemouth, Morayshire, Scotland, UK. He was married to Margaret Ethel Gladstone. He died on 5 November 1937 in Atlantic Ocean.
He was Britain's first Labour prime minister (serving in the office in 1924 and again from 1929 to 1935) and the only one to serve in the office before the Second World War. From 1931 to 1935, he headed a National Government dominated by the Conservative Party and supported by only a few Labour members.
